I have been spending the last two weeks of my life swamped in work, but I had Fire and Ice as a break from the stress. It was always a relief to pick it up and let myself get lost in the the story. It tells the story of Allie, a high schooler recovering from a tragedy she can’t quite figure out. The story follows her recovery and a series of daring events that gets the reader involved after the first few pages until the last. On the surface, the book appears to be somewhat standard fair young-adult novel, however it pushes the envelope in a few ways. Fire and Ice combines Sci-fi and Fantasy with intriguing elements that hint at a larger universe we’re given hints of. There are elements of their combination, that technology is involved with magic, is a consideration that adds an extra punch to the story. My favorite element is the confusion of the protagonist during the first two acts of the story. It reminded me of human trafficking and kidnapping. Allie becomes confused as she wrestles her returning recollections with her feelings and the counter-intuitive insistences of new friends. The book wraps up in a way that is satisfying and manages to check a number of boxes to the reader. The strengths of the book come from the basics of the writing. The characters are all relatable and interesting, the settings and descriptions crisp and the inner monolog of the protagonist convincing. I recommend this book if you are interested in Urban Sci-Fi, Fantasy and YA in an adventure that’s inviting and intriguing. Allie must find her boyfriend, Phoenix, even though she can't really remember the night he disappeared. She crashed her car into a river and almost drowned, but she's sure he's still alive though her family and friends think he's dead. When the stranger who saved her live that night appears, Allie finds that there is much more to her story. This book has it all: some sci-fi, some paranormal, fighting, battles, and high-speed chases. This first book of The Aldurian Chronicles is a promising start to this series. It's not the type of book I'd normally read, but I enjoyed the storyline, especially Allie's backstory. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

It's been months since the accident on Asher Creek bridge that nearly claimed Allie's life. She hasn't heard from her boyfriend Phoenix since the fire station went up in flames, and she's no closer to finding the man who saved her from drowning that night. To make matters worse, she's somehow lost the elemental abilities that connected her to Phoenix-something she once believed only they shared. Vivid, unrelenting dreams have kept her searching for answers. Phoenix is in danger-she knows it. But, now they've found her: familiar, official-looking men who act nothing like the federal agents they impersonate. To keep her family safe, Allie decides to leave the only home she's known since she was two years old and search for Phoenix on her own. But, others have different plans for her. The man who saved her returns, and he isn't alone. A powerful, evil cult leader is after Allie, and she has no choice but to accept the protection of an unexpected ally who holds the answers to secrets from her past. Every step brings her dangerously close to finding Phoenix and discovering her real identity, but the truth is far worse than she ever could have imagined.
