Book Review: The Rose
Posted on 11/12/2020 20:35:21The Rose (Vol. 1) A Dystopian Science Fiction Thriller by Alleva, P.D.
My rating: 5 dark stars
And after that end... Come on!!! I need Volume 2 RIGHT NOW!!
True to the promise from the blurb, The Rose is masterful, dystopian science fiction thriller of, telepathic evil greys, mysterious rebellion, martial arts, and Alien Vampires.
Yes. Frigging alien vampires! And they are downright delightfully creepy.
In a world where humanity has made a mutually agreement with alien vampires and there is a whole civilization living underground, not quite happy with their living arrangements I might add, it's only a matter of time till shite will hit the fan. And this is exactly what happens here.
The predators should have remembered the saying:
'Don't make deals with food. It may come back to haunt the future.'
It all starts with a vision, revolves around a little baby and is made possible by The Rose. What The Rose is exactly, you're gonna have to read this to find out. But I guarantee you won't see it coming.
Forty-eight hours after a World War III treaty is signed, Sandy Cox awakens in an underground compound, tied to a table and unable to move. She's held captive by alien vampires, who've taken her unborn baby.
Phil is a rebel freedom fighter on a mission. Protect Sandy and her baby and get them to safety at all costs. Armed with THE BLADES, a sacred alien martial art, he enters the compound searching for the woman. But the baby has already been born and Sandy has her own agenda. Find the baby at any cost.
If that may involve trusting an alien vampire and battling genetically mutated humans, aliens and monsters alike, so be it.
'Get Ready To Bleed!' - is the only certainty of the day.
Joined by a crew of rogue soldiers, Phil and Sandy must navigate the underground compound, battling genetically mutated humans, aliens and monsters.
Alien vampires, evil doctors and pills turning people into slaves are the least of their problems.
The whole damn camp needs to be blown off the planet, as far as they're concerned, but not before they get Sandy's baby, and rescue everyone they can.
Fast-paced and addictive, this page turner here will have you in it's grip from the very first page. And it will keep you turning pages till the end. It's a unique, fast paced edge of the seat dystopian tale that manages to be both light and complex, as well as simple and sophisticated.
The gripping plot is nicely highlighted by beautifully fleshed out characters, all in different shades of grey. The wordbuilding is excellent and the pace fantastic.
But the highlight for me was the masterful mix of thrilling mystery, fantasy, suspense, dystopia and science fiction. This book has something for fans of any of these genres, including horror if I may be exact. Action, gore, medical experiments and supernatural powers, as well as a mother's connection to her child... This author delivers on each and every count. And he does it in style!
If you love Star Wars, and Ancient Aliens you'll be fascinated by this high-powered, intelligent, edge of your seat dystopian sci-fi action thriller.
It's downright brilliant.
Happy reading everyone
