Publisher's summary

This box set includes all five books in the USA Today recommended Elementals series of magic, adventure, mythology, and romance.

Nicole Cassidy is a witch descended from the Greek gods...but she doesn't know it until she moves to a new town and discovers a dangerous world of magic and monsters that she never knew existed.

When the Olympian Comet shoots through the sky for the first time in 3,000 years, Nicole and four others - including mysterious bad-boy Blake - are gifted with elemental powers. But the comet has another effect - it opens the portal to another dimension that has imprisoned the Titans for centuries. After an ancient monster escapes, it's up to Nicole and the others to follow a cryptic prophecy in time to save the town...and possibly the world.

Good not great

This was a good story. If you enjoy mythology, magic and teen anxieties it’s for you. It’s not an award winning, movie making book. However, I did really enjoy the plot, characters, and narration. The biggest issue for me was that the main character recapped the same information over and over. It really slowed the plot. This set really is one complete book. Where one book starts and ends is awkward like shes trying to create suspense but it doesn’t work. It’s better to hear it straight through.

The most unlikable characters OAT (SPOILERS)

I liked every character expect for Ethan and the main character both of them were just the most unlikable, annoying, three year old babies that blame everyone else for there mistakes. For someone who's only purpose in the story is a healer (the most boring power in the book by the way) So many people have died when she is LITERALLY TWO FEET AWAY on top of that she does the same thing when she fails. "I looked down, i couldn't meet there eyes." come on. I felt nothing when Blake died. I didn't. Care when Ethans sister died, felt nothing when Kate died, because there just no danger in these books, I felt absolutely nothing when apothia died. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD MAKE THERE DEATHS IMPACTFUL. In short I wanted to care about the characters, but u can't If the author doesn't the only one she cares about were Blake and Nicole by the way Nicole's name is only said like five times in the whole series I almost forgot her name when writing this

Nice twist of Greek gods and witches

First four books are a graceful mingling of gods and witches fifth book was predictable

Too much whining

The story line was great. But two of the main female characters whined too much

Awesome Read

The author really captures the essence of a teenager. while at times you really just wanted to reach into the book and knock some sense into them. they handled the obstacles like champions.

It's Okay!

The main character, Nicole, was too whiny. I wish she been a bit stronger and not so prone to being so needy.

Stop reading reviews and just listen NOW

so I read a few reviews before deciding to listen to this book and some of them were not so great.
however the story was absolutely amazing and I ended up staying up half the night just so I didn't have to stop listening to this story.
yes the story is about teenagers and from a teenager's point of view I think these characters definitely we're very mature for their ages especially by the end of the series. The characters learned to work together and put their differences aside eventually becoming friends.

there is never a dull moment in this series and it will keep you went in the whole time. if you expect a book series to have a lot of hot and heated romance this may not be the one for you because that's pretty much the extent of the bad reviews that I saw but if you like action-packed amazing stories with some romance then this is definitely for

definitely one of the best stories I have listened to recently and for just 1 credit you get every book! you could spend your next five credit on a mediocre series or you could have an amazing series for 1

also I wrote this review using voice text with my screaming 2 year old running around in the background and the dogs barking so please ignore all the punctuation errors and whatever else could be wrong with it. my lack of rereading this before publishing did not make anybody worried that I don't know what I'm talking about when it comes to a good story because this is definitely a good story I just have my hands very full.

awesome

I love the narrorator, her voice kept me focused. The book was great as well, I didn't expect it to be that good. very very detailed.

Best series!

The narrator was sooo good at reading this series. I felt like I was watching it as a movie. And the book it’s self had me on my toes and my heart pounding. Romance, epic battles and a turn of events is what you’ll get out of this series

Rating depends on authors experience

If this author is new, then she has promise with her creative world making and new magic system. If she is well experienced, then I am disappointed in how much telling me instead of showing me their was.
