Beta Reader Group discussion

I am looking to get more reviews for the first 2 books in my Supernaturals series. I will post a blurb of book 1 below and links to both books if interested, but will refrain from posting a blurb from book 2 so as not to spoil anything if you have not already read book 1.

If you are fan of Percy Jackson, X-men, or super heroes of any kind, then this series will be right up your alley.



The Rising:

Ethan is just an ordinary teenage boy--infatuated with sports music and, of course, girls. Or so he thinks. Heading home on a rainy night from an amateur guitar gig, he finds his life turned completely upside down--literally. His car spins and flips out of control after what he believes to be a small animal jumps out in front of him. The horrific accident is only the beginning of a series of mysterious and seemingly unrelated events that will change his life forever.

After awaking in the hospital, and following an encounter with an enigmatic doctor, Ethan discovers that something that occurred during the wreck allows him to hear others' thoughts, and even more perplexing, move objects with his mind. While trying to wrap his head around this mystery, he realizes he's not alone. There are others out there with special powers. Not long after learning of this new world, Ethan's ever increasing lack of control places those around him at serious risk. In order to protect those he loves, he makes the difficult decision to leave and accepts an offer to attend specialized training along with other so called Supernaturals to gain command over his newfound gifts. Shortly after beginning his schooling, Ethan is sent on a mission to kidnap who he believes to be the enemy leader in a well concealed Supernaturals war. But the further he becomes embedded in this new world, the more he discovers things are not quite what they seem and doesn't know who can be trusted.

In this first installment of the Supernaturals series, Ethan discovers that super powers aren't always so super, and is faced with difficult decisions that will not only affect his own life, but which may determine the life or death of his newfound companions and mentor.



If interested in a free copy (Word File, Mobi, etc) to review, please respond to this thread or send me a DM. Am willing to trade copies if you have your own book you'd like reviewed as well.

Hi Ryan!

The Rising seems like a good read and I'd be happy to beta trade with you in exchange for beta-ing my YA, coming of age, contemporary fantasy, Level Up Charlie. Based on your description, our novels may have some similarities that could make us a good beta match. Email me at jonathan.corsini@gmail.com if interested.

Cheers,

Jon

PS: here is a pitch to give you an idea:

Holden Caulfield meets Mortal Instruments. How does an invisible defeat an immortal? Gaming nerd Charlie Turner teams up with his thought-projecting philosophy professor to save his mother, find the Fountain of Youth, and avenge the fall of Atlantis

Hi! If you are still looking for a beta reader, I'm looking for someone to exchange with! I would love to read your fantasy and provide thoughtful feedback/commentary if you would read mine in return. Please let me know if you're interested.
