A Canadian-born author, Lisa Voisin spent her childhood daydreaming and making up stories, but it was her love of reading and writing in her teens that drew her to Young Adult fiction.
A self-proclaimed coffee lover, she can usually be found writing in a local café. When she's not writing, you'll find her meditating or hiking in the mountains to counteract the side effects of drinking too much caffeine!
What a fantastic read, especially for young adult readers. I found the story very engaging and entertaining. Though it was my first book by this author, I can definitely guarantee I will be reading all future books!
I think the characters the author created were very different from each other, giving all readers someone they could connect with. This is brilliant as well as it means that the ground of characters interact well as a whole. I liked reading along as each person grew, became friends or enemies and found where they were headed in life.
The pace was really good. It was swift enough to really entertain and also to keep the attention of most reader age groups. The pace also meant that the action moments were exciting and very fun to become a part of, throughout the book.
Overall, this was a lovely rad and I am looking forward to reading more.
**I received this book for free in exchange for my honest and unbiased opinion.
If you haven't read the first two in this trilogy then I highly suggest that you do. These are amazing books. Lisa brings you through a myriad of emotions from beginning to end. Her imagery is brilliant and beautiful.
In the The Warrior Prophet, Mia has to deal with Michael having sacrificed himself once again for her. Back to hell he goes and this time Mia won't stand for it. She with Damiel, descend into hell and face a myriad of obstacles to over come.
Lisa's vivid imagery of hell encompass so many possibilities of what a personal hell may look like. All the while you wonder will Damiel cross over to the dark side again? Will Mia be able to save Michael and survive the horrors hell or will she too be seduced by the evil that exists there?
The Warrior Prophet is boundless in its pull and tug on the emotional ripcord. The adventure you are taken on is full and rich. I didn't want the trilogy to end and yet all good things must. It is definitely a series that I would read again and again knowing all the while that I will take something different each time from it. I totally recommend it.
All three books in The Watcher saga are riveting books but the grand finale is just that – grand in scope and drama. This part of the story starts with one angel dead and the soul of another, Mia’s love Michael, trapped in hell. Michael’s body is earthbound and weakening as demons attack it. Mia must rally the courage and strength to take on the devil himself. She and Michael have been bound by love since before recorded time and now she’s the only one who can save him. This story is woven beautifully between the ancient past and the modern world, between the physical world and the spiritual one. The characters are unique and three dimensional. Hell is depicted in electrifying imagery. This is a love story and an epic battle between the forces of good and evil. It can be read as part of the series but also reads well as a standalone book.
I've been loving The Watcher Saga from the beginning and the final episode did not disappoint. Voisin nails it with her haunting interpretation of Hell and the effects that demons have on humanity. For a YA paranormal romance, there is some great thought provoking insightfulness throughout this series.
You might say that I enjoyed the Hell out of this.
DISCLAIMER: I received a review copy in exchange for an honest review, in honor of this blog tour.
This book starts with a bit of a bang. Michael's body is in a coma, and his soul is . . . tortured in hell. The battles are epic; demon-soldiers die left and right all along the way. Michael . . . ♥ . . . Can we make him a real guy? Please? The author's writing is great; I did not stumble as I read (and believe me, minor dyslexia makes me do that often), which helped me understand the story as I went. That is a major plus.
I have really enjoyed this series but by the third installment, Mia's childish behavior started to grate on my nerves. You'd think after all she has been through in previous books that she would suck it up stiffen her backbone and deal! She does - but whines throughout. There were also a lot of questions left unanswered. Even so, it was a fun and interesting read and I LOVED Michael's devotion to Mia... now there's a sigh-worthy male!
I've read all 3 books now by Lisa. This trilogy is an excellent portrayal of the dimensional reality that we live in; where past, present and future co-exist. Lisa is able to provide young people a behind-the-scenes view of the energetic byplay of what they can see and feel anyway. I thoroughly enjoy seeing how Lisa is teaching youth energetic truths through story.
This is a great read! The Warrior Prophet is the third book in Lisa Voisin's fabulous series The Watcher Saga. The series targets young adults, but is appropriate for any reader who loves a good story line full of suspense, action and intrigue. If you haven't read the first two books, The Watcher and The Angel Killer, I strongly recommend starting at the beginning. Amidst all the action Voisin brings us a love story that suspends all time, as Mia and her fallen angel boyfriend Michael literally travel through heaven and hell together in their struggle to be together, and to protect human beings who remain blissfully unaware of the vicious battle for good and evil being fought all around them. In Warrior Prophet, suspense reaches a new peak as Mia risks her own life to journey through hell in a desperate attempt to save Michael. She must take with her the person she most fears and distrusts...
This is a series you really need to read in order. I'd also recommend you read them pretty close together, as there is a lot of detail and thought that has gone into this story and its characters. The author's interpretation of hell, is pretty darn close to what I'd expect it to be like.. which is creepy in its own right. There is so much going on. We get glimpses into Mia and Michael's past, we get some revelations on Damiel, there is fighting, there is possession...Needless to say there is a lot of action that brings the reader to hell and back.
The Warrior Prophet by Lisa Voisin was kindly provided to me by Chapter by Chapter Blog Tours for review. The opinions are my own.
I couldn't wait to read the last book in The Watcher Saga and the author did not disappoint. It's a tight and gripping story that absolutely captivated me from page one––a thrill ride with epic battle scenes and psychological elements that pulled me in various directions but always surprised me in the end. The Warrior Prophet is a harrowing and frightening journey through the depths of hell. Fans of the Mortal Instruments (and urban fantasy in general) will fall in love with this world! And that cover! I can't wait to see what is next from this author.
In “The Warrior Prophet” Ms. Voisin has deftly penned an imaginative and highly creative story that draws on a mixture of human beliefs from Gods to angels to demons while still making it coherent and believable for teenagers.
