Deep, dark, twisted, exciting, exhilarating fun. There. That’s my short-hand review of Ingrid Seymour’s Eclipse The Flame (Ignite The Shadows Book 2). I loved book 1 (simply Ignite The Shadows), but I’m growing more and more enamored with Marci and addicted to her story with this second installment. This is really great stuff with a superbly crafted cast and top notch writing. Easy to highly recommend.
The worst nightmare just became reality.
Marci is living a horror story – losing everything she could within mere days. There is no certainty anymore. And what is worse, after being eclipsed following the torture at Elliot’s, she is now deep within his faction stronghold, pretending to be someone she’s not to survive and redeem herself from the haunting memories. Even one ally could be more she ever hoped for, but who would trust her after all?
Heart-wrenching story told at a break-neck speed, with lots of action, adventure, drama, and plenty of emotions – sadly, under the circumstances, most of them very negative. The suffering Marci goes through is absolute, and there is barely any ray of hope remaining. I can’t imagine how would it be to suddenly find myself in her place. Thankfully she was raised to be a tough girl, with certain skills but also a temper, and now comes the challenge to use whatever wits and skills she is able to collect to find a new purpose and seek revenge for all she lost.
Fantastic, fast paced, action packed, edge of your seat read. I was absorbed from beginning to end and couldn’t put it down. I can’t wait to read the next book!
I’m not usually interested in reading in this genre but hey, it’s Ingrid Seymour. I could not pass up one of her books. And with this book, Ms Seymour continues to prove her expertise in writing. My feelings were all over the place with this one. A little romance was cut way to short with a dramatic end. So sorrowful. Then we read about Marci’s mother. So tragic. Then a harrowing car chase so intense I could hardly catch my breath. Alas, the car chase was all for nought because Marci was captured and subsequently tortured for information. Very gruesome I almost puked when Marci did. The suspense in this book is so thick you’ll have your nails bitten off before it’s over, literally. But that is not the end. Oh no, Ms Seymour has more, much more. An action packed gun battle and Marci is in the middle of it. I’m wondering if this is going to be the actual end of the story. At the same time I’m wondering, while shaking my knee up and down uncontrollably, if Ms Seymour has another twisty twist before the actual end of this book. Well, there was a surprise. A big one. Could be a good one or a bad one depending on what happens in the next book. I’m def looking forward to reading it.
Book one was amazing and introduced Marci and the crazy life she has. But book 2 was even better. More darker then the first it took what was good and made an even better story that had me laughing and crying until the end. Marci and the other characters were amazing and I loved to hate the bad guys. The story drew me in and had me rooting for Marci to survive the hell her life has become. There was a lot of action and crazy. A few more things are explained more along with a bit of a mystery or two lingering as the book went. I loved trying to guess who was good and bad and going to drive Marci crazy next. I was kept guessing to the end to see what would happen next and at the end. Loved it!
What can I say this book is just as good as the first. We have suspense, action, mystery, horror, heartache, and more. guaranteed to cry in different areas. All feelings come out and the descriptions of everything is great. You will not want to put this book down. You will feel apart of it. Marci feels alone since James has kicked her out. Xave and Marci finally tell each other what they feel for each other, but Xave leaves to do something for James. Marci follows, what will she find? Her brother Luke is in the same place and talking to someone from a different fraction. How many fractions are there? Are they all against Ignite? What has Luke done? After every thing that goes down and every thing goes to ****. What will Marci do now? Give in? Fight? Will James ever accept her back?
Can she be strong or will the shadow take her over? Will Elliot kill her or take her over? I received a free copy for my honest review.
