Grim Tidings (Gates of Eden: The Voodoo Legacy Book 2)

This series has some dark aspects and gritty characters. I enjoy the mythology and the action keeps you guessing. I loved this book! This series has won me over! The character development is progressing and I enjoy seeing how the characters mature And learn over time often having to reflect on past decisions with a steap learning curve. The mythology is well done and gravitates to the darker aspects to using death magic and it’s ramifications. Well done! I enjoyed the narrator she does a really good job.

We learn more about the vampires, Annabelle’s parents and few other characters in this book. It starts to bring everything together. We have a little action and emotions. Annabelle learns more on how to share her body with Isabelle. They both have a attitude, but learn to live with it. I recieved a free copy for my honest review.

“Grim Tidings” the second book in the “Gates of Eden: The Voodoo Legacy Series” by Theophilus Monroe is even more amazing than its predecessor.

The story hits the ground running soul blade forward into the heart of a vampire.
After having lost a friend in Guinee and with the vampires growing in numbers surely the only way to go, until familiar and very powerful vampire approaches Annabelle asking for help in overcoming Death itself. Annabelle is not precisely enthralled, but with one his acolytes shadowing her every move at the academy, Annabelle has to make an impossible choice: help the enemy or risk her own family to be turned into one of them.

With the Academy lacking its headmaster and thus, closed for business until a new one could be appointed, and Madame Laveau investigating the aftermath and overseeing the situation up to the re-opening, it is in fact Madame Laveau herself the best ally Annabelle, her residing-in soul-ghost Isabelle and her sister Ashley could ever have in the battle to come. The story evolves swiftly into a fully enjoyable adventure that keeps the reader invested until the very end.

Theophilus Monroe successfully blends voodoo, magic, fantasy, mystery and a sprinkle of romance into a coherent plot that is fast-paced, action-filled, very well-written, populated with interesting and relatable characters, and describes a fully realistic environment in which the more fantastic aspects of the tale serve to highlight the credibility of the story.

From the very first page of “Voodoo Academy” (Gates of Eden: The Voodoo Legacy Series Book 1) I knew that this would be an awesome and original new UF series, but I honestly did not expect it to get that much better in only one more book… now I am very thrilled to read what Monroe will throw at us in the next installment… I can’t hardly wait!

I loved this book! It was as good as the first one and this series has absolutely won me over! The character development is wonderful – very complex and logical. The story world is great. I can’t say enough good things about it and highly recommend it if you’ve read book 1. If not, go read book 1 and then come back to this. You won’t be sorry! I can’t wait to read the next one!

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Annabelle and her soul bound ghost Isabelle are still trying to find Nico, but they may not like what they find. The Baron is still in the other world and they still have to prevent destruction if his red aspect returns and Kalfu is still lingering around too. The book gets down and dirty right away and it stays fast paced all the way through. Can’t wait for book 3 to see what happens next. It’s such a unique series and I adore the characters. I volunteered to read this book via Booksprout.

ONE TANTALIZING ADVENTURE!!!
Greedy gremlins! Monroe delivers this action packed, pulse racing, heart pounding, adrenaline pumping, page flipping bombshell, that hooks you from the start and reels you in for the duration. Blurring boundaries and leaping lines, exposing the strengths and weaknesses being weighed and balanced, booting this gem into the eye of the storm, breaking it down, knocking it into overdrive, catapulting it into a tailspin with a jaw dropping realization. Shenanigans, escapades and mayhem rule the roost displaying the drama, turmoil, intrigue, underlying threats, danger, spiraling suspense and unnerving situations, along with a double dose of chaos while dodging deadly intents, you have one mind-blowing experience. The characters are complex and genuine with traits and qualities that add depth and realism, blend and flow transforming into amazing personalities. The scenes are strikingly sharp with abundant details and descriptions that feel as though you were transported to ground zero with them. Remarkable job Monroe, thanks for sharing this lil’ fella with us.
