Silver Shadows A Bloodlines Novel Richelle Mead Books

This is not a Richelle Mead "young adult" title. Ifyou're looking for another Vampire Academy, this isn't it.

This one's finally for the adults out there.

No teen overdramatic relationships, . Though there is one teenager as part of the cast, this isn't a repeat of Mead's popular but less mature vampire world.

But it's not wonderfully raunchy pornographic adult fiction like Mead's Succubus series either.

The Age of X series is like a bit the Harry Dresden supernatural mysteries, toss in some Honor Harrington military adventure, and a dash of Percy Jackson's world (a young adult book, but the only comparison I could find) for flavor - and you have Age of X.

The characters are well drawn, sometimes not very likeable, but very real and gritty. These are real people, not shining heroes, so if you're looking for role models, you won't find them here. These are broken people who step up to the plate when the world needs them. Involvement with drugs, alcohol, casual sex and sometimes really stupid personal life decision-making is part of these characters, but so is selflessness, love of family and friends, and courage.

The world-building is amazing. This is a future that isn't quite "post-apocalyptic," but it is very different from the one we know. It is a world where disease has ravaged the gene pool, leaving healthy mixed-bloods and genetically damaged pure bloods, but the world soldiered on. There was no war, but political divisions have remade the borders, blending some countries, splitting others, based on their cultural response to the disease.

Mead explores the concepts of religious rule versus enforced secularism, in nearly pure forms, and the cultural responses and effects on individuals, while playing into a supernatural world that neither side is ready for.

Silver Shadows A Bloodlines Novel Richelle Mead Books Reviews

oh my oh my looks like she moved on...loved this series, I have read all of her books except the glittering court series, that one isn't quite my style, however I may give them a shot since I love richelle's writing so very very much! This series, the age of x, is absolutely fantastic, I was unsure of it at first since it is more sci-fi-y than her other works, but there is such great chemistry between the characters, and its a book for adults which is nice to see from Mrs. Mead!!! I think her "Dark Swan " series is my absolute favorite, if you haven't read it you should definitely pick it up!! I simply ask that you please continue this series as I am dying to know how it ends!!!
4.75 of 5 Stars

It is no secret that we love paranormal books around the blog. A couple of years ago we read Vampire Academy and fell in love with the series. I was so upset when they ended, but my husband was probably happy. I literally had done nothing but read for a week straight. I was ridiculous and didn’t cook, clean or do anything. I was obsessed with those books! I knew that Bloodlines was a spin off series but I have been so busy with life that I could not take the time to read them. Until now!

You will remember many characters in Bloodlines from VA; Sydney Sage the Alchemist, Adrian Ishkavov and Jill the Moroi, and Eddie Castille the Dhampir. Of course we see glimpses of Rose, Dimitri and others as well, which is nice.

Bloodlines begins with Sydney going on assignment in Palm Springs to help protect Jill from a group of people trying to kill her to keep Lissa from the throne. Eddie, Jill and Sydney are going undercover as siblings and students at a boarding school. Adrian is staying nearby with another Moroi, Clarence and his son Lee is back and forth to LA for classes. This is also where Jill has her feedings.

The other Alchemist, Keith Darnell, is posted in Palm Springs. To say he and Sydney don’t like each other is an understatement. He does not want Syd around and will do whatever it takes to keep reminding superiors of her actions in VA when she helped Rose.

I love the way Richelle Mead can weave a complex storyline. Things start happening at school and around Palm Springs that cause Sydney to become suspicious. Will she risk being sent for re-training by the Alchemists by working with vampires and dhampirs again? Be sure and one click Bloodlines today and fall in love with the paranormal world she creates all over again!
Absolutely love Game Board of the the Gods & The Immortal Crown! Richelle Mead is an amazing writer I own most of her books, but I will be so disappointed if the next book in the series Eye of Andromeda doesn't get published! Seriously! Just leaving us hanging! Does Mae find out who attacked her? Does she accept Lokie's offer? & Justin does he find out anything from Daphne? Does he find Mae's attacker? Do Justin & Mae end up together? & Senator Darling? What's his game & what God is he with? Does Mae get to see Ava again? Her mom & sister get arrested? Acadia does it fall along with their God? I could go on!
