Arne De arne_deceapog — I'm assuming, perhaps incorrectly, that this is a version of Chekhov's "Seven Short Novels" collection that I first read in high school. In fact, this book could be credited with getting me sucked into Russian lit and history in general... could be...

Burak Ovacık bovacik — Originally posted at Fragments of Life. Warning: Might be slightly spoilery for those who haven’t read the first two books of the series. Note: This is the kind of book that is hard to forget. It is strong, emotional and unputdownable just like its predecessors but even more. This is memorable not only because I read it on my birthday but also because I cried so many times while reading it. My Thoughts: The love triangle of Ethan, Lena and Liv still entertained me. But this time, I got to see not only the tension between Liv and Lena but also Lena’s emotions and thoughts about the other girl and Ethan. It was great for Lena to show her jealousy, insecurity and pain. I loved seeing how human she could be despite her unparalleled powers. This was once of the reasons why I got attached to her. She was not as open as Ethan when it came to showing emotions but when she shed her Caster skin and I got a glimpse of the true, vulnerable Lena underneath, it was unforgettable. Ethan grew up as a character. Lena wasn’t the only one who needed to choose. Ethan would, too. I enjoyed seeing Ethan take on the supernatural Caster world and all the obstacles that stand in his and Lena’s way. But the journey that he endured in Beautiful Chaos was probably too much for a mortal. I admired his perseverance, courage and good heart. I believe that Ethan became a man in this installment. Aside from Ethan and Lena, another character took center stage: John Breed. To be honest, I hated him pre-Beautiful Chaos but once I got to know more about him, I actually liked him. I think I might have even liked him more than Ethan. I got to know his softer, more vulnerable side – the real John and not the John that Abraham created. I really enjoyed reading about him and Liv. Their relationship was an unexpected one. That made it all the more exciting and sweet, because I never would have thought that Liv would go for someone like John Breed or that John could fall in love with our resident nerdy girl and treat her like a princess. At this point in the series, I find it so wonderful that Stohl and Garcia still manage to spin twist after twist. I couldn’t even imagine how the beginning of the book ended with that heart-wrenching ending! I bawled my eyes out after reading this. I was so attached with the characters, especially to Ethan and Amma. Their pain and suffering became my own. Heart-wrenching, gut-twistingly painful and bittersweet, Beautiful Chaos will captivate readers with its emotional impact and superb world building. This has everything I wanted in a novel: action, suspense, romance, tear-inducing scenes and sweetness. I highly recommend this series to all fantasy, paranormal and romance readers. Be prepared to be swept off your feet

Nancy King _ancy_ing — Slow Boat to Purgatory by Vernon Baker Synopsis Gaspar De Rouse, an immortal Knight Templar, a man murdered by his brothers for the secret he possessed, resurrected and given a second chance at redemption. Dominicus Bureau, a renegade priest, torn between his vows and the secret he pursues, a secret protected by an immortal. Alex Donovan, a modern day warrior thrust into an ages old war, a war between good and evil, heaven and hell. All three, passengers on a Slow Boat To Purgatory. "Alex Donovan was a warrior once. Now he spends his days in a sedate and somewhat bitter existence combing Boston's used bookshops, drinking too much fine wine, and cursing a knee crippled by a terrorist's bullet. But when Alex's grandfather dies, he discovers the old man has left him not only a vast fortune, but a mystical, ancient book which tells the story of an immortal Templar knight; a man named Gaspar de Rouse, a man who, according to his grandfather, still walks the earth. Bewitched by the manuscript, written and illustrated by a 16th century Venetian artist who is befriended by the enigmatic Gaspar, Alex takes a journey through history that begins in the war-ravaged city of Acre in the year 1291. It is there that Gaspar is betrayed and loses his life, only to be resurrected by an Archangel and a Demon Prince. Given a choice, to spend an eternity in Purgatory or to serve both Heaven and Hell as a hunter of wayward souls, Gaspar chooses the life of an immortal marching across time doing battle with demons, angels and crushing loneliness. The secrets of the book consume Alex and he comes to believe that Gaspar still lives. Alex's mundane world is transformed into a race to find the knight. It is a race that takes him from a quiet cove on the coast of Maine to Zurich's hidden banks and the dark waterways of Venice. Eventually helped by a warrior priest whose own secrets and quest to find the knight are shadowed in mystery, Alex struggles to distinguish between those who seek his destruction and those who would ensure his salvation." My Review When Alex's grandfather passes away he gets more than he bargained for at the reading of the will. Armed with a large bank account, a strange key and an ancient book Alex delves into his grandfather's past and opens the door to a world which he never knew existed. Alex is an interesting character, former military he is a man than doesn't suffer fools lightly yet here he is with a book of his grandfather's wondering if it's a fable or if the man named Gaspar could really be walking among us. Throughout the book we are transported into the past and Gaspars memories as Alex reads through the book in the present. Dominicus is part of a secret order of priests who are hunting down Gaspar and the secrets he is hiding, they are willing to do anything to pursue their goal. The book really starts to heat up when Alex and Dominicus meet and we are treated to a taste of what's to come in the next book. Personally I would have liked to spend more time in the present with Alex than in the past with Gaspar. I know the author is using this book to set the scene and establish a backstory for whats to come further in the series, I just really enjoyed the end and felt the beginning was a little slow. The series has a lot of potential and I can see it becoming a hit with fans of Dan Brown, it's just not quite there for me... yet! Ask me again after book 2 :) I would award Slow Boat to Purgatory 3.5 stars. Reviewed on behalf of Book Monster Reviews http://bookmonsterreviews.blogspot.com/
