TITLE: Sideswiped (The Peri Reed Chronicles #0.5)
AUTHOR: Kim Harrison
PUBLISHING DATE: August 10, 2015
PUBLISHER: Pocket Star
FROM GOODREADS: Don’t miss this
thrilling first look into the elite world of Peri Reed, government
agency operative extraordinaire, and catch more of her character in The Drafter, the first book in the all-new suspense trilogy from #1 New York Times bestselling author Kim Harrison, out September 1.
Every hero, even the accidental ones, have a beginning.
Silas’s
radical theory that drafters are not replaying time as much as they are
temporarily sliding into an alternate universe has never been
well-received, but frankly, the darling of Opti’s research has enough
clout not to care, until a professor with a grudge tries to put a
permanent end to it. Love can’t alter time, and sometimes, even being
able to rub out a single mistake isn’t enough…
MY THOUGHTS:
I
read this to get a good feeling on Harrison's new series and sad to
say, I am not completely sold. This novella was a good introduction to
the world of The Drafter, but I had a hard time becoming invested in the
whole "drafting" process. I will also admit that part of the problem
may be on my part. I loved The Hollows series so much, especially
Rachel, Ivy, and Jenks, that I am finding it hard to transition to new
characters and new worlds.
I liked Peri as a character and am
interested to learn more about her. And I already have The Drafter on
reserve at the library so I will give the series a chance...but oh, I do
miss my Jenks!
RATING: 3 PAWS
COYER SCAVENGER HUNT CHALLENGE #40 - Read a book with a strong female protagonist (Peri Reed).
