I am chomping at the bit with curiosity here, so we will do something a bit different. The next 8 discussions I post about will all be pertaining to the same series the Elemental Origins Series. And later on, I will discuss the curiosities I found and how much I liked…or didn’t like…the books.

The Elemental Origins Series is written by A.L Knorr. Born of Water, Born of Fire, Born of Earth, Born of Aether, Born of Air and The Elementals. The collection I got also includes two companion novellas, The Wreck of the Sybellen and Pyro; which I will also discuss later after the first six books.

The Academy of Falling Kingdoms – Awesome YA Fantasy!

The Academy of Falling Kingdoms Trilogy - Three YA Books not to miss!

Alright Curious Ones, it is finally time for another book curiosity! I borrowed a trilogy this time from the Kindle Unlimited library (which I am sure you are starting to realize is my favorite thing to do – borrow a set or partial set so I have more material to read) so it has been awhile since my last curiosity discussion. This trilogy was written by both Marisa Mills and Drake Mason and they used the tagline “I can speak to demons. The punishment is death. ”

When I read that, I absolutely had to choose this trilogy as my monthly rental!

Remember to support Time for a Book by visiting The Library!

Beyond the Veil by Pippa Dacosta – a Fantasy Adventure

Hello there, Curious Ones! I just finished this book called Beyond the Veil by author Pippa Dacosta.

To begin, a quick overlook of the characters. The protagonist is a woman named Charlie/Muse, half demon – half human who five years ago walked away from one of the princes of hell, Akil – also known as Mammon, the demon prince of greed – Akil is the main antagonist. Then you have Stephan who is also half-demon, half-human who goes through the book as a bad guy, then a good guy, then a bad guy, then a good guy and so forth until the end of the book, which I believe he was a good guy. You also have a couple of good supporting characters, mainly Nica who ends up being Stephan’s half sister and Ryder who is a human and Stephan’s friend/handler/weapons expert. I am not 100% certain if Nica is more than human, but she is not part demon; I don’t think.

Mortality Bound Review – Happy and Disappointed

To begin, Mortality Bound sounded right up my alley. Written by S.W. Clarke and Ramy Vance, there were demigods, immortals, humans, struggle, a bit of love and one kick-ass heroine. The main protagonist is a 500-year-old “Encantado” who can shift her form. She is dating a human male who has had his DNA spliced with a handful of other immortal beings because he wanted to not be “weak”. There is also the set of 3 cupids, the main one you interact with in the first book is, of course, Cupid of Eros and finally, you have Hercules himself who appears as the final member of the main group.
