Underground #1-3
Underground Boxed Set: Off the Grid, Creating Slapshot, Initiation by Fire
Can a man disappear forever and build himself a new life, or will his past catch up with him?
Follow this 10-part serial throughout 2015 featuring Ethan, aka Slapshot, a hockey player whose life is ruined, forcing him to disappear forever. Ethan joins Underground, a black ops organization and is trained as a deadly operative. There, he meets Ciana, a woman with a dark past of her own. As Ethan and his Underground colleagues embark on dangerous missions worldwide, he finds a new purpose in life.
Off the Grid, Underground 1- The seemingly impossible has happened. The unthinkable. Those I trusted most have betrayed me. I’m a hockey player, and gave control of my finances to my parents so I could concentrate on my game. Big mistake. They stole from me, bankrupted me, in fact. And then someone come looking for money I don’t have and I made a terrible mistake; one that will haunt me forever.
But now someone has found me and offered a new start. I would no longer be a hockey player, I wouldn’t even be an actual person, totally off the grid. I’d be a shadow, fighting crime for an organization that’s underground, literally. Do I want that life?
If I go back, what kind of life would I have? Probably one in prison orange. The choice to join Underground is painful, but necessary. As my hockey coach always said, though, pain is weakness leaving the body. I will not be powerless ever again.
Creating Slapshot, Underground 2- I’ve left my old life behind and officially joined Underground. It appears no one knows where I am or even if I’m still alive. I don’t know how I feel about that. My friends thinking I’m dead leaves a hole in my heart, but I’ll drive myself crazy if I obsess about it. So rather than allowing myself to wallow in self-pity or anger about what’s happened, I’m throwing all my energy into training. You would think that whole “elite athlete” thing would make everything easier, but all these new techniques I need to master—hand-to-hand combat, weapons training, surveillance procedures—are kicking my ass.
For my whole life, I’ve only had one identity. Ethan, hockey player. Now that sense of self is gone forever, slowly being replaced by my new identity, Slapshot. Surreal doesn’t even begin to describe this transformation. But the more I find out about the world around me, the problems I ignored for the most part as I played a game for an obscene amount of money, the more I want to make a difference. This is not a game. It’s real life, and I have the chance to be a hero. It’s going to take everything I have—or have left, to do it.
Initiation by Fire, Underground 3- I have my first assignment--helping track down a man targeting Cuban bodegas and then using an automatic rifle to massacre all those inside after they're attacked by a Cuban gang and his wife is killed. Underground is tasked with figuring out who this dangerous man is and stopping him before he goes on another rampage. It's the first time I've seen Underground in action, and I have to admit, it's exciting. I feel that adrenaline rush I used to get right before I hit the ice. And I loved that satisfied feeling of knowing I helped find justice for all the innocent people the man has murdered.
Despite that, I still find myself thinking about what I left behind, as I learn more about what my parents did with my money, and my former hockey team struggles to deal with my apparent death. Guilt weighs me down, and the rest of the team does their best to keep me focused on this new life. Can they do that, or will I snap under the pressure?

C A Carr has done an amazing job with this suspenseful, dramatic, and intense series 'Underground'. As we join Ethan in his new life, camaraderie with the others in his team, and the action of the missions, you find yourself wanting the next 7 installments. Here are the reviews of the first three:
Off the Grid (Underground Book1)
This is a great start to an intriguing series. Ethan, a professional hockey player, has found himself in a position he never imagined he would be in. His mom and dad were in charge of all his finances. Finding out that they squandered and even illegally got into things that has come back to bite Ethan unexpectedly. Two thugs try to collect, causing Ethan to kill one and then fleeing for his life. On the way two people of the Black OPS intercept him, wanting to bring him into their operation. What does he do??? Does he have a choice?? This is an exciting beginning of the Underground Series. Can't wait for the next ones... Great Job.
Creating Slapshot (Underground Book 2)
The suspense of this second book of the Underground Series is only rising. As Ethan is continued to be trained for a mission, he continues to struggle with what recently has happened to him to bring him here to the Underground, but he also realizes they all have a past that has brought them all together. Maline and Andre, the leaders of the team, have been meeting with a contact at the DEA, but at this point unwilling to let the team know any details. So, the wait goes on as well as the training. The plot begins to thicken knowing a mission could be any time.
Initiation by Fire (Underground Book 3)
This third book of the Underground Series is the best by far. We are getting into the action. Ethan is still learning the ropes with his training and he is also become attracted to Ciana who is the arms specialist of the team along with many other things. He just doesn't know if she feels the same or what the rules are within the team. The story becomes more intense as they are trying to identify a killer and where he will hit next. That is their next mission and it involves Ethan. When the strike begins all hell breaks loose and Ethan finds himself right in the middle.....The suspense is building in the story as Ethan has a hard time ridding himself of his demons. Great Read. Can't wait for the next installments.
This is a must read series. Ethan goes from a hockey player to a member of the Underground and a new identity..Come join us as the Underground goes up against the bad elements in the world. Extremely suspenseful and fast moving. Love it!

Starts slow and seems implausible, but picks up and becomes more satisfying
Underground is a 10-part serial novel. This is a review of the first three parts (Off the Grid, Creating Slapshot, and Initiation by Fire) contained within the boxed set. (I was given a free pdf copy in exchange for an honest review)
First off, I have never purchased a serial story before, but there were some things that I didn’t like about the format. First, I found it odd that the chapters were not continuous from “book” to “book”. Second, I would not have been satisfied reading this as three separate installments, because they are not self-contained stories. I suppose one could view them as the first three episodes in a new TV series.
The first episode was an introduction to the protagonist, Ethan, and revealed the predicaments that make him go on the run. It ends with how he was recruited to join this mysterious group that operates outside of the law to thwart murderers, kidnappers, and the like, both foreign and domestic, that regular law enforcement is either too undermanned or restricted by red tape to tackle as quickly and efficiently as this group does. Frankly, there wasn’t enough there to make me want to go buy the next installment to see if this story was going to go anywhere. Our would-be hero panics and skips town, so I’m not too impressed by this guy. Then, he is confronted by two strangers at a roadside rest stop who tell him they have been illegally spying on him for some time and that he should trust them and come with them to see if he is interested in working for them. I’m already having a hard time believing that some group is not just keeping tabs on a few potential prospects, but that they pretty much know what he had for breakfast and were listening in when the events that caused him to run took place. What a waste of time and resources that would be! Then, we find out the entire group consists of twelve people, only four of which follow these potential future employee prospects in the minutia of their lives and only when they aren’t involved in current missions. And, Ethan was just a really good hockey player, who majored in criminal justice in college. This all taxed my suspension-of-disbelief too much, so I would not have gotten the second installment, if I had been buying the serials individually.
The second episode covers Ethan’s time getting training in weaponry, hand-to-hand combat, surveillance, etc., as he gets to know his fellow operatives and the way the Underground works. Ethan is also plagued by self-doubt in his abilities and anger and guilt about the events that preceded his running away from his former life, and his sense of loss for the friends and team mates he left behind.
This installment was much better than the first. Ethan seems more honorable, thoughtful, and likeable than he did at first. We learn more about his new team members, in a natural manner, as they work in pairs or interact as a group. I also liked how well I was able to picture the weapons, people, and environment from the author’s descriptions. I usually get bored with weapons descriptions, but I actually enjoyed these. The comparisons that Ethan draws between team sports and the tactical team were pretty interesting, too. It is also nice to see a combination of men and women on the team and that the women are strong, intelligent, and respected.
The final installment is even better. Ethan continues his training and getting to know his fellow operatives. He also goes on surveillance rides, meets an informant, and finds that he’s attracted to a fellow operative, but doesn’t know whether she feels the same way or how his team mates might view intimate relationships within the group. Finally, he preps for and goes on his first mission. However, the mission leaves him shaken and gives him additional doubts and feelings of guilt. The end…of the first three installments.
So, in conclusion, the story got off to a shaky start, but eventually picked up. I also liked the character developments and the inclusion of strong female roles and a diverse cast and the action elements that took place in the second and third installments. There are some typographical errors, but I’ve read some printed books from big publishers with a similar number, for what it’s worth.
Finally, at 167 pages and a decent conclusion, this boxed set would be much more satisfying than buying individual installments, at least in my opinion. At current pricing, you would also save a dollar. Still, this will turn out to be a more expensive e-book than those of many well-known authors from big publishing houses.

>Review – Off the Grid -
>I received this book from the author and from Paranormal Romance and Authors that Rock. I am an independent reviewer. This is the first part of a ten part serial in the Underground Series.
>Ethan is a professional hockey player who entrusted his professional earnings to his parents. His dad is an accountant, so the decision to save money and use family to manage his earnings only made sense. Ethan soon learns his parents squandered all his earnings and owe some dangerous people a lot of money. When Ethan is forced to defend himself and ends up killing his attacker, he goes on the run.
>So far, the story goes way too fast. I know it is a serial, and therefore just a few chapters long, but more of Ethan's backstory would have been nice. He is in his 30's and accepts just an allowance from his parents each month? He doesn't have to sign off on his own taxes to realize they haven't been done in years? Why would the Underground, a black ops operation want a stupid guy?
>Fact is, the Underground recruits Ethan, offering to reinvent him as "Slapshot" and promising him a lot of good deeds in his future. Ethan does show remorse for just up and disappearing from his old life, including letting his team down. I can see why this decision is his only choice, though. We meet a few other Underground members, but don't get to know them in this part of the story.
>I am not a fan of serials, and the first part can be a lot of tedious set up, so I will give part 2 a chance before I make up my mind on this series.
>This book is recommended for a young adult (14+) audience.
>I received this book from the author and from Paranormal Romance and Authors that Rock. I am an independent reviewer. This is the second part of a ten part serial in the Underground Series.
>This part of the story has Ethan beginning his training with the Underground. He is introduced to fighting, weapons, surveillance and equipment. The reader gets to know a bit more about each team member, including a few back stories. The scenes with Ethan's training read like a manual. Even the dialogue is stilted. The scenes with Ethan having issues sleeping and mourning his hockey team are the most realistic in the whole story.
>Nothing is addressed with respect to how these people have any type of relationships. If dating isn't allowed, it wasn't mentioned. As a group of human beings, companionship is important and necessary. The weaponry was explained ad nauseum, but how to handle a physical relationship is ignored.
>Nothing much happens, action wise, in this installment. There are a few promising scenes of interesting dialogue at mealtimes, but other than a lot of discussion regarding fighting and weapons, this book barely held my attention.

This part of the story does not create an unrealistic view of surveillance and operations. A lot of it is dull and the excitement only lasts seconds, while the aftermath is hard to get over.
>Ethan suffers from his actions through self doubt and dreams. I still feel the Underground team explains things way too much to feel natural. I realize it is for the reader's benefit, but it makes for a very wordy story with too little action.

Author Cassandra Carr has started a brand new, exciting, suspenseful book serial called Underground and the first three installments are now available in this beautiful boxed set for a great price. I have devoured these stories all in one sitting and it feels like I'm watching an action adventure movie with interesting set of characters, action scenes and engaging dialogue. After reading each installment, I look forward to finding out what will happen next.
Off the Grid
The author captured my attention right from the first page with the dialogue and action involving Ethan Jackson. The story was fresh, exciting and suspenseful. I felt so bad for what Ethan was going through and I loved his introduction to the black ops group, Underground and their plans for him to be off the grid. He fit right in with the rest of the other members.
Creating Slapshot
In this installment, we see Ethan begin his training as an operative using weapons and learning to go on a stakeout. The author is doing a good job developing this character as he slowly becomes Slapshot and learn to leave his former life as a hockey player. I liked Ethan's interaction with all of the other characters in this story especially Ciana who is a master at creating unique weapons for the team to use on missions. The story flows smoothly without missing a beat.
Initiation By Fire
Ethan finally gets to go on his first mission with the team and he is able to hold his own. The action scenes were exciting, the dialogue was wonderfully written and I could not stop reading. With this story, we get more insights into the characters and I especially enjoy Ethan's interaction with Ciana and Helen. I liked how supportive they all are as Ethan continues his training and recover from his first time in the field.

I liked the first installment of Off the Grid. The main character, Ethan, has just received some very troubling news regarding his family. He must decide if he should stay in the world has he knows it or if he should submit to the UnderGround.
The author does a good job drawing the reader into his world.
I can't wait to see how Cassandra turns this hockey player into 007
I liked how the author picks up Ethan, Slapshot's, story. I liked meeting more of the UnderGround team and his interaction with them.
He's been given a little taste of what is to be expected by him and what he can expect of his new team.
Looking forward to book 3.
In book 3 , Initiation by Fire, we get to see out hero Ethan in action. He goes on his first assignment with a few members of the UnderGround Network.
This book does a great job in showing us just who Ethan is. He's developing into a huge asset for the team
Looking forward to the next installment
