Complication

Chronicles of the Uprising, Book 2

By: K.A. Salidas, Katie Salidas

Narrated by: Kerri McCann

Narrowly escaping death at the hands of the Magistrate, Mira travels west, toward the coast. With three weakened human fugitives accompanying her, she searches for the mythical land of Sanctuary.

After encountering a pack of wolf shifters, headed by the charismatic - and brazen - Stryker, Mira learns that Sanctuary is real after all. Caldera Grove: home of the Otherkin. Hidden in the mouth of a dormant volcano, it has protected its residents from humans since the early days following the great cataclysm. For Mira - a vampire - Caldera Grove is a land of peace; an escape from the relentless persecution of the humans who once enslaved her, and an end to the daily struggle and bloodshed of being a gladiator.

For the humans accompanying her, Caldera Grove means death. Humans, greedy and untrustworthy creatures, are destroyed before they can penetrate its borders.

To plead her case for entry into Caldera, Mira must abandon her companions, albeit temporarily, and follow Stryker into the heart of the city. What she finds within Caldera Grove presents her with an unenviable decision between her own desires for freedom and peace, or honor and the human companions who risked it all for her.

I can't get enough of these Series!! An absolute must read!

The Chronicles of the Uprising series continues with Complication and once again I was thrust into a world I didn't want to leave!! This is an amazing story, full of fantasy, loyalty, romance, honor and determination that always leaves you wanting more. And omg can you say Werewolves? I was so happy when they appeared. They are definitely two things I never thought I would say. Funny and Sexy! I loved everything about this book, the complexity of the story and the depth of the characters keeps you hanging on Katie's every word, and the way she is unfolding this world in front of our eyes is not only mesmerizing but absolutely and without a doubt.. Addicting.

The more you discover, the more you'll want to know and I for one can't wait to see what else is up for this fabulous and refreshing story. I can't get enough of these Series!! An absolute must read!

Excellent follow up

This was an excellent follow-up to book number one!

We join Mira and her friends in the wilderness as they find the way to Sanctuary. We find that she and Lucian are still on rough terms and then enter in Striker! Talk about a monkey wrench...

Striker is a wolf and he is other kin and Mira is taken aback! There are struggles to find a new balance between her human friends and her supernatural family. When she finds that she has no place in either land, she's got to make a tough decision when the humans come looking she really has a hard time deciding what the right thing is to do especially when people are manipulating her mind.

Once Mira figures out what she really wants to do in her spirit, she sets out to do it and come hell or high water she will make sure that it happens!

Salidas has written an excellent follow-up to book one I very excited to see what happens with Mira and her friends and all of her new family. Especially to see how Mira reacts to all of the new feelings that she has now that she's no longer trapped but fighting for her freedom to stay intact.

Due to physical violence suggested for mature readers.

I will be switching from audio to book format

I was so use to the previous narrator that it made getting into this book so difficult. the narrator completely ruined it for me. she sounded nothing like I pictured her voice.

with that being said. the book is yet again another hit! k.a. salidas doesn't disappoint. I loved this book... a little romantic feelings are developing.. I vote for a wolf/vampire relationship sorry Lucian.

I will absolutely be continuing with this series. just unfortunately not with audiobooks. I really can't shake her voice. it's like nails on a chalkboard for me. But this series is just way too good to stop.

better overall

I do like the first narrator better but overall this book was great. The series gets better with each book.

Mira is back.

I loved book 1 and was so excited when this came to audio, while I enjoyed it I thought it was missing the intenseness that book 1 had.

Mira is on the run and trying to reach sanctuary with the humans that helped her, only thing is she has to escape the people that are chasing her, and deal with the fact that humans aren't allowed in sanctuary. How can she get her friends into Sanctuary and who are the wolves following her too?

Mira is as awesome as always. She has been through hell and only wants to live a safe life. Her feelings about humans has changed a lot since her captivity and she knows that if they aren't allowed in sanctuary, then she won't go either. I loved that about her. She may be kick ass but she has a heart too.

The plot was relatively fast paced. It wasn't as action packed as the first book but it still held my attention throughout. I liked the otherkin angle and loved the wolves, though I loathe a love triangle and am really hoping this isn't going down that road!!!

In all, this was a really good second book. I wanted a little more action but we get a bit more character development, which I suppose is a good trade off ;)

This is a different narrator than book 1 and while she did a great job, I found her to be a little flat on the action scenes. I needed a little more pizzazz from her to enjoy it thoroughly.

*I received a copy of this for review. This in no way affects my thoughts.*
