Description of  Embers (The Wings of War Book 1)

Ember. She is not just an ordinary girl. She is neither plain, nor simple in any kind way. She has a uniqueness that goes beyond the average human understanding. Her name is very fitting of who she is. She is a Watcher. Watching and waiting until the time comes in the world where she will have to take action against evil. Where she will have to be their hero, in an effort to save what she has always known as her home, her world. I have read everything that Karen Ann Hopkins has published. For the most part when authors find something really good, they stick with theme and continue to make it better and better by adding more storylines. Introducing new characters etc. However, this author is crossing into another territory that I originally wondered about. I fell in love with the Temptation Series, YA Amish Fiction. Then Lamb to the Slaughter, Adult Mystery. Now, we are treated with Embers: The Wings of War, which is mature YA and Paranormal, sprinkled with a love interest. Her approach to this new focus was outstanding. She included elements that were familiar to her, and in the end had a wonderful story to tell through her writing. The novel begins in a way that I was truly not expecting. I’m reading, making connections, as I read, and out of no where events pick up very quickly and you never stop until the last page. Ms. Hopkins does a wonderful job of carefully selecting wording that truly describes her characters and the setting. The storyline is carefully crafted and blended together to form a story that is engaging and eventful. I have a few questions that I can’t wait to ask Karen Ann in our next interview. But I’ll wait for Embers to come out, so you can get your copy and join in the discussion. Embers is the other side of the story. The untold story of who is out there in the world. Who is watching. Who is waiting, to make their move.
