Presence (Presence series book 1) Review

Presence - Perie Wolford

Promo Poster

 

I really loved this book. As far as the science fiction goes it was superb.

Yes, maybe the writing and the characters were a little flat and not quite there but it wasn't annoying to me at all because I was so captivated by the plot that I wanted to keep reading no matter what.

The storyline, it takes you into this new world and it is so different and interesting. I thought it was quite imaginative of the Author to come up with all those elements like the Systems and the trapping balls and the Elite, etc. They all fit together well and created a vivid picture in my head.

Besides that, I also related to the drama in Samantha's life and her losing everything so fast. I had a little bit of similar drama of my own and I definitely could relate to her struggle and was inspired also with the way she managed to get back on her feet no matter how hard the blow was. 

The ending was great, for the series that is. It definitely makes you want more. Luckily the second book is on the way.
