Nora and Annabel are Seers, but it will take everything they have to survive a war where attacks are launched from hidden cities, soldiers can teleport, people can be tracked by their genetic profile, and a puff of air can be as lethal as a bullet.
This series completely elevates the genre of science fiction, featuring strong women, romance, action and excitement!! It’s everything I never knew I could find in Sci Fi, and I can’t get enough of it.
Nora is a character women can relate to, caught in a rut until two strangers show up at her door and turn her life around. Annabel, her counterpart, enjoys the perks that come with being part of a ruling family, but struggles to find her voice and put her own plans in motions. Both women are from secret enlightened societies and show their wit and intelligence at every turn. And – lucky for us – each of them has a man in their life that are equally smart, skilled and smoldering.
I was completely hooked from the start. The characters jump off the page with their distinct voices, individual goals and compelling love stories. And the action doesn’t stop! One heart-pounding moment to the next, Katherine Bennet can’t help but constantly tug at our heartstrings and draw us deeper into the worlds of Octavius and Nios. She is, by far, one of my favorite authors ever. I need more of these novels in my life!!

This is a wonderful sci-fi for women . It has a lot of different things in here to make it exciteing like adventure, humor, suspence, and even romance. It is very complex and very interesting to read love it.
I received an ARC and am giving an unbias opinion.

I can’t say enough good things about The Seers. This is a groundbreaking opener to a series that has the potential to change romantic science fiction. Four things stuck out most to me.
1. Bennet is a master of the multiple-POV novel. Few authors can do this well, but she brings distinct voice and feel to four different narrators. I could immediately tell whose head I was in as the chapters went by. Everybody was distinct.
2. Each romance had its own weight and tension. Jasper and Annabel are the quintessential young lovers who think they are the center of the universe (don’t get me wrong–I love them), caught up in a Shakespearean drama and everything. The other romance is more measured and tinged with tragedy, as the actors are a bit older and have seen more. They’ve suffered in a way that Jasper and Annabel haven’t. Both romances, though, were extremely convincing. I feel like I know these people in real life. I’ve seen these types of couples.
3. Bennet hit all the important points of world-building, most especially in making the story just a part of a bigger story. Every scene, every bit of exposition, every revelation hinted at MORE. There’s so much MORE going on than the reader can fully see. The events started a long time ago and now we’re seeing fruition. Instead of being frustrating, it merely whets the appetite for what’s hopefully a very long series.
4. The sci-fi tech was just so cool. I love Bennet’s imagination, whether she’s tackling genetic engineering, matter manipulation, or all the other delicious bits of future tech she put in. It’s fun. It’s different.
I’d give this 6 stars if I could. I WILL be recommending it to everyone I know. A+

HEART POUNDING, ADRENALINE RUSH!!!
Ok guys, are you ready? I could tell you all about the tale. I could say its off the charts explosive and can keep you on the edge of your seat. I could even tell you how smart the heroines are. But come on guys, you’ve read the blurb, you know what the other readers are saying. You know the score. So because I’m me, I’ll running this show. Just kidding, there’s no show. If you like a fast paced, action packed, heart pounding, adrenaline pumping, pulse racing, unpredictable read that captures your attention from the start. Congratulations my friends you’ve found it. This is one read that will captivated and keep you frozen in place until the last word. All the action and drama with the right balance of spice to make things a little more interesting and bold. The characters were off the charts realistic with such depth that once the layers started peeling back you got a new perspective on the whole situation and man it will totally blow your mind. Katherine doesn’t know the meaning of the phrase “no way”. She is definitely a “yes way” person with the talent that draws you deep into the world she has created and you are totally mesmerized following the characters as their personalities transform and come alive beore your eyes. The scenes were so vividly detailed and descriptive that it was like you were part of the story instead if reading from the sidelines. You get so caught up you couldn’t put this bad boy down had you the intention to try. Yes, its that spellbinding that keeps you on your toes. Twists, turns and unexpected surprises that kept my attention on the pages and complete focus on turning the pages faster. I had to see what was next. Yes, I’m impatient like that. If you can’t hold my attention for the first two chapters your not going to keep it. This is one whirlwind, rollercoaster ride of emotions and danger at every corner. It will completely take your breat away in moments and have you on your knees the next. All I can say is BRING ON THE NEXT ONE PLEASE! Phenomenal job Katherine bringing this little gem together flawlessly and without a crease. Thank you so much for sharing.
