Resumen del Editor

What if every choice you ever made had the power to reshape reality?

Joni, the daughter of World Walker Seb Varden, has never met her father. And the world he left behind has become a dangerous place for the last generation of Manna users. Mee and John insist Seb will return, but what if they're wrong?

Could it be possible she has none of Seb Varden's powers? Or might her abilities reveal themselves as she leaves childhood behind? In her 17th year, Joni will be forced to leave those she loves, face a great evil, and finally learn the truth about her father.

The gimmick was a poor one.

Any additional comments?

There could have been so much that could have happened in this instalment. The gimmick simply ate up reading/listening time. The constant narrative recapping events to make sure the reader was still with the twists was a bit much. Then again the repeating of events to other characters over and over again so that the characters were up to date was yet another layer of retelling.

I think the gimmick could have been used more effectively. The potential capabilities that were simply left on the table and not explored hurt the plot and made the story much blander than previous instalments.

( It's hard not giving spoilers. )

1 2 & 3

it took half way through the first book to really get hold of the many characters storyline and get some flow of the story, brilliant narration excellent each book had me wanting more and seeking heroes outcomes..well thats the thrill and drama of each book loved the series

Gets you from the beginning

Just wow! another great book in the series! Todd did an amazing job of showcasing Joan's friggin power. Even though she is Sebb's daughter, she doesn't seem to have his powers.

While Joan's is on the run by some crazed lunatic, she shows she can wield her powers.

downgrade from the first two in this series

I was not pleased with this one. I felt the main character should have done something different in a key moment. additionally, Deus ex machina is not hey satisfying resolution. I'm hoping to pick back up in the fourth book.

Great Fiction

I fully enjoyed this book in every way. I love the characters I love the build up of the characters I wait till the end of the book to find out the answers to the questions of the book leaves. I’m looking forward to the next book hoping for final answers.

Man, that was some tasty storytelling

Imo this is the best of the bunch... A tight, well paced, and intriguing sf/fantasy, coming of age type, thriller... The writing is impressive... Delightfully intricate plotting, and replotting, w/o confusing the storyline... The reset drives action, and emphasizes consequences... Little bit of ssocial commentary of a topical nature, lightly and perceptively done... Excellent characters and relationships... Great bad guy, and loved the way AI is proposed, and what that makes Sim... I was engrossed thoroughly, and awed by the storytelling skill displayed... Couldn't put it down...

great book

I have enjoyed this book immensely . The storyline was great. I listen to it while I'm at work . the author of this book is a great writer I look forward to reading more of his books

was sceptical, but pleasantly surprised

I was sceptical about this book because it shifted the main character, and I've found that's not the best choice in a 3rd book. I was surprised that I liked this one as much as the first two. Joni's ability is new, different, and intriguing. and the whole story flows well as a discovery of her powers and a quick moving crime drama.

great series, fun read

this was the third in as many books. Wonderful series. not boring. worth another read.
