Kindle Edition Verified Purchase. This book has completely changed my opinion about independently published authors.
A week ago I received an email from the author stating that I might be interested in this book. I do not know the author and I assume that she had gotten my name from my Amazon Profile. She was running a three day special on the Kindle version for free. I was very skeptical at first, simply because I have downloaded several books by indie authors in the past and could not even finish them.
But the introduction to the book sounded very interesting so I figured since it was free, I had nothing to lose. From the first page to the end, I loved this book!
Editorial Reviews. Review. Five Star This book is captivating to those who appreciate the traditional epic novel. The story has action, adventure, conflict, loyalty. EUROPA: Awakenings (Volume 1) [P. R. Garcia] on www.farmersmarketmusic.com EUROPA: Awakenings: Second Edition (The Europa Saga Book 1) and over one million.
I made the mistake of starting this book late at night. I really thought it would be one of those books that would put me to sleep. I was so wrong! The plot is very well developed and her description of the characters brings the story to life.
The author definitely has a very good imagination and the ability to articulate. Her writing style reminds me of my all-time favorite author, Anne McCaffrey.
It has some romance but no sexual content that would make me not recommend for teen-agers. It does have a few typos grammatical errors but not enough to distract you from the book. It is the first volume of a series and does not end in a cliff hanger. However, you will want to read the next one. I think this book will mainly appeal to women, young adults and old ladies like me. Garcia introduces us to a young girl, Europa, about to turn She is said to be royalty, descended from a line of royals, now exiled.
She lives with her mother, a widowed queen, on an well guarded estate. She has three close girlfriends, a handsome boyfriend, a her pet dog, which makes her a normal young woman. However, all is not as it seems and life is about to change drastically.
Enter aliens, shape shifters, war, adventure, family secrets and romance, and you have a delightfully different YA scifi novel. The plot is well developed and well paced and the characters are endearing, and of course some are despicable, but all in all a lovely read!
