Beyond the Past

Supernatural Renegades, Book 2

De: Carly Fall

Narrado por: Gordon Palagi

While trapped in a convenience store on a snowy New Year's Eve, Marine Lucas Tate made a promise to his childhood sweetheart and future wife, Gabby: he would never leave her side again.

Twelve years later, he's done just that.

While serving in Guatemala, Lucas survived an accident that left him with the supernatural capability of seeing visions of people dying before they actually do. To protect Gabby from his secret and those who gave him the ability, Lucas leaves her, drops out of society, and becomes homeless on the streets of Reno, Nevada-until, one day, he is given a chance at a new life by a stranger who calls himself Joe Smith, on the condition that he sober up and regain his physical strength.

Anger and sadness become Gabby Tate's companions as she struggles to get by without her husband. In her search for answers, she finds herself caught up in a world she never knew existed, and suffers greatly at the hands of those hunting Lucas.

Reunited by fate, Lucas and Gabby must join forces to stop his persecutors. Through betrayal and heartbreak, Lucas must reveal his secrets to Gabby, who is now faced with the biggest decision of her life: Can she go beyond the past and forgive Lucas for breaking his promise to her not once, but twice?

Awesome Read

I really enjoyed this book. It was well written had an awesome storyline, and kept you captivated through the entire story. The story progressed at a good pace and the ending was great!

Enjoyable book and good storyline.

I found the detailed descriptions especially in the start of the book created the foundation of the story and understand the motivation of the main character (Lucas) of why he left his wife (Gabby) and is living on the street . This draws you in and enables you to connect with the characters The writing is good as it allows you to connect with feeling and heartbreak that the character feel as a result of the situations that they have been placed in.
This was an enjoyable book with a good storyline which keep you interested and listening to the very end, where the bad guy pays for his actions It did however leave room for the story to continue to develop in the next book namely to disclose who was behind the conspiracy that the characters found themselves in.
The narrator Gordon Palagi provides a unique performance in portraying the different characters in the book.

Interesting story

What did you like best about Beyond the Past? What did you like least?

I like the story line and have read the first in the series also. The story is interesting, but I feel it was too short. I like the characters and how they interacted. I wish that the story had continued to see them through their first mission.

What was your reaction to the ending? (No spoilers please!)

It ended to soon.

What aspect of Gordon Palagi’s performance would you have changed?

The reader needs to be more forceful when speaking in the male voice. He did not capture and hold my attention as well as most other readers I have listened too.

Was Beyond the Past worth the listening time?

It was ok, but not something I could not put down. I might have enjoyed it more if I had read it myself. I was not impressed with the reader.

Any additional comments?

I was given a copy of the book from the author in exchange for an honest review.

Supernatural Renegades Book Two

Supernatural Renegades Book Two

Lucas Tate has been living on the streets for the past six months to protect his wife, Gabby, from the military men who gave him the power to see future deaths in his mind. Garrett finds him, though, and offers him a job he cannot refuse. However, when Gabby is abducted and abused Lucas becomes determined to find the man responsible and end the threat to Gabby forever.

Gordon Palagi narrates the series with a subtle touch. He distinguishes between characters, but does not go over-the-top. This allows for a smooth read without skips or missteps in character voice.

If you're looking for a quick read about magic and military experimentation, this is the book for you!

Short but okay!!

Any additional comments?

This story is a little too short for my. it was fine but i would like to see more story, instead of a fast pace that leaves my like " what where" . i miss some more detail, what kind of work will the lead do, and what kind of organization is he working for. it is too secretive for me. i hope the series develop more as the stories are released.
