In a former life, H M Clarke has been a Console Operator, an ICT Project Manager, Public Servant, Paper Shuffler and an Accountant (the last being the most exciting.)
She attended Flinders University in Adelaide, South Australia, where she studied for a Bachelor of Science (Chem), and also picked up a Diploma in Project Management while working for the South Australian Department of Justice.
In her spare time, she likes to lay on the couch and watch TV, garden, draw, read, and tell ALL her family what wonderful human beings they are.
She keeps threatening to go out and get a real job (Cheesecake Test Taster sounds good) and intends to retire somewhere warm and dry - like the middle of the Simpson Desert. For the time being however, she lives in Ohio and dreams about being warm...
She is also a bit of a video game nerd and, is into Star Trek, Midsomer Murders and Harry Potter, and she absolutely adores the TV show Almost Human
I do like this series but the reason I knocked off a star is because the editing is awful. The wrong spelling of things is used frequently like the word pass is used several times but should be past. There are extra words and sentences that don't make any sense. It's really frustrating and makes reading less enjoyable. I even took a break from the series because it seems each book gets worse as though they aren't important enough to edit because the author is just trying to crank out books.
Oh my goodness this was great! It's tough to write a review without giving spoilers...just know that it is full of surprises and we got to meet new characters. I love to try and figure out what is going on in a book and I have some ideas, but after reading this part of the series, I am not so sure. I am grabbing the next book now so I don't have to wait to see what happens next.
This story has so much potential, but geez, could someone find this author an editor. The mistakes are ridiculous. The word bought is used instead of brought, every time. That is just one in many. And seriously, this should not be classified as a whole book.
This one was a lot more interesting. Kalena's story in this part is ne, but still so full of secrets, it's impossible to fully understand what's going on. The book does need going over by an editor though.
Kalena has been rescued by some very strange creature, but she has lost her memories from a head injury and don't know who she is. She encounters Asnar who she doesn't know and not sure who what he is. She is realizing she can do things with her mind and to her it a little unnerving. She needs to try and figure out who she really is since they have given her another name. Another great book in the series.
