Fantastic continuation of Allie”s story!!! Once again I was left wanting more!!! Frost Kay is such a talented Author and believe me, this series doesn’t disappoint!! I am so looking forward to the next book in this AMAZING series!!!
I have to say I’m surprisingly loving this series! I’m very choosy about what scifi books I read. I’m kind of weird when it comes to certain genres,I can watch them on TV or movies all day long but reading them rarely grasps my interest. Not with this series though,I was intrigued from the beginning and it held my attention so much I’m anxious for the next book. The author did a brilliant job with the characters personalities. They seem realistic and I could even see myself befriending them if they were real people. Also, I hate snakes, like I’m terrified of them, serious phobia here people, yet the author had me almost drooling over the snake like alien,Sid! I’m totally captivated by the story line and definitely as eager as Allie is to find out how her hallucination from Amber Vial plays a part in this whole episode of conspiracy and mystery. I absolutely recommend this book! So jump on board the ride of friendships,conspiracies, intriguing characters, strange alien customs,and life on a new planet that you never wanted to go to but will find yourself getting pulled into a new life that may or may not be as bad as you thought.
Ok, a quick “Cliff’s Notes” review: I loved Frost Kay’s Mixologists and Pirates serial and have no doubt that anyone will too. I read Amber Vial (separately reviewed) a while ago and loved it. My only complaint was that I finished it too quickly and then had to wait. I solved that by reading the remaining episodes of this serial, Emerald Bane, Scarlet Venom, Cyan Toxin, Onyx Elixir and Indigo Alley (Parts 2-6), all at once. It worked perfectly for me as each episode is a pretty quick read so in total these work our to be the equivalent of one long book. And a totally fun book it was indeed. Superbly written, with a great overarching plot, a wonderful lead in Allie Sai (just the sort of kick-a** heroine I adore), a perfect cast from Allie and Blade on down, perfect world-building and, at the end, a great last episode HEA. Definitely recommended.
As an advanced reader, I am giving an honest review of this new and upcoming book.
Book two was almost as short as book one but felt longer as the action of the series picked up. More plot was laid out leading into more action for book three. These would be great day trip books to read when you don’t want to get trapped in a long story that you can’t finish.
Emerald Bane – Book Two in Frost Kay’s Mixologists and Pirates series is absolutely fantastic! The story picks up right where the first left off and I am loving it! Allie is working at a bar and good news! She’s good at it! She and Jer are essentially working together and all is going well. That is…until some people come looking for her behind something that she did to one of their own. Uh oh! Looks like Allie has some serious problems ahead of her!
Emerald Bane…a moonshine that has not been yet perfected was introduced to the reader in book one at the tail end. Now, it continues as brings things full circle, but is there something else really going on in the shadows? Is Allie being used as a scapegoat for a tragedy? My mind is whirring with the possibilities! I love the way that the author introduces the reader to different characters of different alien species that way that she does. You don’t feel overwhelmed as they each enter the scene. The story is well done and kept my attention from start to finish. I immediately wanted to grab the next book and dive in when I finished. Allie just can’t seem to stay out of trouble.
There isn’t anything that I don’t like about this book. The suspense, the drama, the humor, and the quality of the aliens hook me in and keep me thoroughly entertained in the story. I love it! These are short stories, but they are engaging from beginning to end.
If you enjoy a fun sci-fi novel with snarky humor, a main character that seems to attract nothing but trouble but has a good heart at the end of the day then grab these novellas and dive in! I am rating this book 5 out of 5 stars! I am eager to start the next book!
I actually wish this could be a full length novel. I love the concept and story but feel like I could enjoy the characters more if there was more background and details. Even still I’m invested and need to see where Allie ends up.
Overall rating: 4.8
Book 2 keeps the pace moving with Allie managing to rack up the unlucky tally. Totally love this authors mad skills at world building as well as the hyper speed these characters manage to spring to life. Very glad book 3 isn’t something I need to wait on. Highly recommend any new readers to just go ahead and grab all 3, there is no avoiding it once you get hooked in! All my reviews are always voluntarily written.
Fast paced, out-of-this world (literally), girl-next-door main character falling reluctantly, but head-first into adventure.
This is shaping up to be a really fun series! The books are short, quick reads- which I find perfect because ALL of Frost Kay’s books have been hard for me to put down-so I don’t lose as much sleep with these shorter reads:) I can’t get over how QUICKLY this amazing world has been built along with an interesting & likable cast of characters AND an intriguing story. How did she do that?!?
Next book please!
Great read and fascinating! Aliens and humans are mixing it up!
I tend to really enjoy this authors work, and this new science fiction series is great! It was action packed, and left me wanting more!! I can’t wait to read the next book!
