Book #2 in The Blemished Series!
“You’re part of the vanished now. That’s what we all are. The people who have been forgotten.” Mina Hart fought her way out of Area 14. She made it to The Clans so that she can live a normal life with her friends and her father. But what she finds is no safe haven. As her best friend turns against her and the Compounders treat her with distrust, Mina begins to suspect foul play at the very heart of her new home. Just to make matters worse, the threat of war is coming. The Clans are turning against each other, and Mina is caught in the middle. Join Mina as she is reunited with her father, meets new and surprising friends and tries to figure out her complicated love life. The Vanished promises even more rebellion and romance with betrayal just around the corner…
My Review
I am always pleasantly surprised when I read a book #2 that surpasses the first. Too often, it feels like the Author was trying to stretch a story that just should not be stretched. I think Sarah Dalton has done a great job of staying true to her characters and plot.
The fact that it starts off right where The Blemished finished really helps with the Action from start to finish. It keeps you on the edge of your seat and you will never be bored.
You really think its going to end tied up in a pretty bow and then bam a cliffhanger. :'( . But I can't wait to see what is in store next!
Sarah grew up in the middle of nowhere in the countryside of Derbyshire and as a result has an over-active imagination. She has been an avid reader for most of her life, taking inspiration from the stories she read as a child, and the novels she devoured as an adult.
Sarah mainly writes speculative fiction for a Young Adult audience and has had pieces of short fiction published in the Medulla Literary Review, PANK magazine, Apex Magazine and the British Fantasy Society publication Dark Horizons. Her short story ‘Vampires Wear Chanel’ is featured in the Wyvern Publication Fangtales. The Blemished is her first full-length novel.
