Review: Savage Winds: A Post-Apocalyptic/Dystopian Adventure

Savage Winds: A Post-Apocalyptic/Dystopian Adventure Savage Winds: A Post-Apocalyptic/Dystopian Adventure by Alexa Dare
My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Synopsis:

When nature refuses to be controlled, can mankind endure? 
A dangerous conspiracy unfolds... 
In Author Alexa Dare’s whirlwind start of The Children of the Elements series, a clumsy teenage techno-geek struggles to protect kidnapped children from a covert government organization responsible for creating their psychic powers to control the five elements. 

A mighty wind… 
Seventeen-year-old Brody Thackett’s conspiracy theorist brother ensnares him in a real life children-as-weapons plot, while a determined scientist grooms happy-go-lucky, seven-year-old Darcy Lynn Carpenter to use the wind as a deadly weapon. 

Out of control...

My Thoughts:


This was an interesting book. It started a little slow but didn't take long to pick up. It is suspenseful and keeps you guessing as to what these people were gonna do next. The children have some really neat skills. However, I felt sad for these children and their predicament. I am interested to see what else Vincent can do since his part was kind of understated in this book. I really enjoyed this story and I am definitely curious about what book 2 has in store for readers.
