Soars has created for them, you realize that they’re actually very distinct and three dimensional. Once you do get a handle on the characters and the unique world M. We get hints of this depth in the first book but it’s just enough to whet your appetite and make you want to read the second one even more. From what I can tell in this first book, her world-building is fantastic and when she goes into even more depth in the second book I think it will reveal just how much time and effort she put into creating Arcadia. They’re tantalizing and combined with the massive cliffhanger ending they certainly want to make you read more to find out more about M. Although we readers are kept in the dark about Arcadia and the mysterious prophecy for a bit because Alexia is kept in the dark, we get to see hints of it and the prophecy throughout the story. If you don’t have the patience for that then The Prophecy of Arcadia is definitely not for you.īut if you have the patience to let a good story unfold, you’ll be amply rewarded. It gets better as the story goes on but it did take me quite a bit of time to keep everyone’s names, voices and backstories straight. Sometimes it can get just a bit confusing, particularly in the beginning and you’re struggling to name them, let alone identify their voices. Of course Alexia is the main character but a few of the other characters get page time as well. The only real problem that I found throughout the whole of this book is that the points of view change just a little too much.
But the survival of Arcadia depends on her and her friends. She wants nothing more than to be free to live her life. Or her confused feelings toward popular and mysterious Julian. Such as her love/hate relationship with her “cousin” Matthew. To make matters worse, distractions keep getting in her way. There is also a new drug circulating at school that is turning students into freakishly strong menaces. Someone is trying to prevent the Prophecy from taking place and the prophecy boy hasn’t been found yet.
But Samantha will soon realize that nothing is as it seems. To succeed in her mission she must learn to control her Arcadian powers and keep her true identity from her best friend, and the girl she swore to protect, Alexia.
To ensure their safety, the Arcadian Council sent their most gifted youngsters to Earth to act as protectors. A group of Arcadian explorers discovered a Prophecy that claimed their salvation lay in the hands of two children from Earth. Cut off from their resources, the Arcadians turned to Earth for help. 115 years ago, a small planet called Arcadia was invaded by a vicious alien race and nearly destroyed. Would you sacrifice friendship and love in order to save your planet?īeing a teenager is tough, especially when you have to pretend to be something you’re not, and you’re in love with someone you shouldn’t.
