How he manages to do it, im really not sure but every single book i read of Tim's has me gripped and the Tessa Dark Series is no exception....

***Book One "Stilts" SPOILER ALERT***

We follow straight on from where Stilts left off as Tessa, Joe and Richard have boarded the helicopter to be whisked away to the promised sandy beaches and freedom of The Island...!

As the boys warm up to the new faces on the island, Tessa tries to ignore the nagging feelings that everything is not as it seems and that the Island is just too good to be true.....

Cue the drama, the love, the romance, the nail biting, the fear, the grotesque, the ick, the relief, the horror and the crazy!

Another amazingly written, nail-biting, cliff-hanger of a book.....How long until October Tim?????????

Wow Tim seriously how do you do it. I m sure I ask this question in every review as you always seem to leave me wanting more when I finish one of your books. Book 2 in the series and yet I feel as if I know Tessa as well as I do Keira, it was a full on action packed book and i really didn't know how they were going to escape! You really did leave us hanging around for a while to find out. Looking forward to book three and how their adventure will unfold.

Another great book

I discovered Tim's books in March this year, I now only have 6 left to read from all published on Amazon!! Don't know what I will do in a weeks time I usually read one book in a day or 2.

I loved this book and the series would be great as a movie, so much action and adventure and never a dull minute. Tessa has evolved so much and it is interesting to watch her fighting to survive and struggling with the choices that she makes. Richard and Joe are the two men in the love triangle and usually I am not a huge fan of them but in this series it works well. Tessa is conficted by her feelings for the two men and refuses to acknowledge them for fear of them becoming "real" to her. She constantly challenges herself and those around her by 'owning her mistakes'. Her gut instincts are so spot on and her refusal to give up is admirable. I cannot wait to read the next book in this series, it just keeps getting better and better.

Seriously can I send you my hospital bills for the anxiety attacks that you have almost given me. I have officially decided that Tim O'Rourke is the king of anxiety. In this book you pick up exactly where you left off on the last one. A few new characters are introduced and the level of craziness ensues. Tessa has become in some way the leader of this crazy group. Determination and sheer will to live is what keeps this group going in just about where you think your heart is going to explode Tim again leaves you with a cliffhanger I cannot wait for the next book!

Gripping story from beginning to end! Stilts (book one) was amazing... Zip took it up a whole different level of excitement. Never read an author that truly engages me EVERY SINGLE TIME! Truly disappointed I have to wait for book three.

Thanks for the ride Tim, it was utter brilliance!

Wow. This one kept me up reading late into the night. It had my mind racing and my heart thumping. It amazes me how this book mostly takes place in one scene, but it was freaking magnificent. I couldn't have been more on the edge of my seat!

I do like this series but the YA aspect of it sometimes is grating on the nerves to say the least. It is a fun read and a good sequel to the first book. I will be still be reading the final book when it releases.
