Snow's Review: Descendants of Arcos by J.P. Uvalle

Descendants of Arcos by J.P. Uvalle
My rating: 4 of 5 stars


what an effin crazy ride this was! I dont know how to rate this one...
Effin hell...

After a very thoughtful night and a huge part of morning, i have come to terms with my own weiry mind.

*sigh*

It' s an ungrateful job to describe this story in a few sentences, cause it s a huge wirlwind of a cluster events that i cant simply say-yeah, this and this happened cause you know, there are things that you dont know, cause you cant know about them cause if i told you then you d be like "what the fuck are you talking about" so you see, i am in a cluster fuck of my own!

Book 2 continues at the exact place the book 1 ended - Detective Xandra Kellan is running away from the cluster mindfuck of discoveries about herself, her past, present and unstable future...leaving behind her is a devastation, a hearbreak, a destiny she can't yet cope with...

Xandra turns another U turn by going back to college...a total cut back from the pain, mixed confusing prophecy, her mission, her reincarnated destiny that keeps in her tracks never leaving her alone...cause she cant escape from herself.

The destiny comes clear when she encounters Darius Jones a 23 year old student, a popular jock, an unlikely young man that would ever be anything more than an attraction/distraction...but the ancient reincarnation prophecy is her destiny, she s a queen and he's a descendant of Arcos...

The last person I 'd expect to come into my life, was the exact person I needed all along....

As it s inevitable to escape yourself, the very known evil will barge in again, mercilessly, with the same lingering intent of possesion and devastation...Xandra will once again have a choice to make...maybe the most drastic one...as she s the one...

"Yes, you are the defender of mankind."

Again *deep sigh* as i am still not 100% in the clear...

First of all I admire J.P. UVALLE for the endless imagination...
Jesus, oh mighty, i had an honor to be in your world for a few hours and i feel stunned, shocked and confused, overwhelmed and captivated...

And i still am...

Absolutely amazing amount of detaily worked out imaginative world of fantasy.

BUT this time, i had difficulties connecting to/with the characters...
their instant connection never really "got" me, i wasn't swept away with them until maybe a little after 60% of the book...

it felt "unreal"in an "unreal world" so it s a double "unreal" *shrughs*

But as you pulled me into the turmoil of constant action, devious ploy, bursting carnal passion, I wont deny that i stopped thinking about "not connecting" with the characters cause i was indeed ALL IN, following the story.

So, i m in between 3.75-4 stars cause even though i liked it, i needed that "connection" to completely LOVE it.
