C J Barry's Redemption

[Eva Millien]

The first book of the metaphysical fiction Soul Series is a unique and intriguing story of ghosts, demons and enlightened beings and a butt kicking heroine.

Reya’s only shot at redemption is to be a Redeemer, someone who offers the soon to be dead one last shot at atonement for their sins.  Thane is a detective who compromises his own soul by carrying out his own brand of justice.  When good people start dying the two will have to work together to uncover an evil plot.

This unique story grabs the reader’s imagination from the very beginning and doesn’t let go.  The author portrays a very interesting and engaging world with an intensity that brings the world to life and makes the reader feel as if they are fighting for the souls of the human world right along with Reya and Thane.

The strong characters are captivating and draw the reader deeper into this smooth flowing plot.  The emotions and charisma of the hero and heroine are vivid and breathtaking real.  The reader easily gets caught up in their individual plights as well as the overall conflict.  The romance between the two is slow building throughout the story and appropriately paced.

I loved this fast paced book and once I started it, I couldn’t put it down until the end.  The story does have one drawback, the metaphysical content can get a little confusing if you are not paying attention, so pick a time that you are less likely to be interrupted and curl up for a great entertaining story.  I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series. 

I was provided this book by NetGalley in exchange for an honest and fair review.
