When Dr. Margo Pullman goes to work for "The Institute" she hopes to change lives with her research in neurobiological studies. Instead, she is appalled to learn her research is being used to test and torture children, most of whom have died in the process. Margo goes rogue. That night, she steals away the three surviving children, changes her identity and hides them away from the world on a secluded ranch in Texas. For twelve years she raised the two boys and one girl as her own. The tests they were subjected to has altered the children's DNA, turning them into "metahumans" complete with fast reflexes, super strength, the ability to heal and unmatched intelligence. When Margo goes missing, the children--now teens--embark on a journey to reclaim their mother from the evil CEO of "The Institute" who wants them back to continue his plans for the perfect race. Begin the thrilling adventure into the world of Metahumans with Winter's Awakening, the first book in Winter's Saga.

5,0 su 5 stelle Fantastic Debut for Winter's Saga, a series about Metahumans!!!

I came across this book through my newsletter from More For Less Online. After reading the description, I was thrilled at the prospect of reading it. I quickly downloaded it and devoured it within an hour or two. This story starts with a short history of how Margo Winters came across 3 children, and what she did to take them out of a tragic situation. She raised them with love, loyalty, bravery, courage, and determination. She went the distance for these children that weren't biologically hers. This is encouraging to me. We have many parents in our world that don't care about their own children.

The actual story starts 12 years after she abducted the children from a previous employer. They live on ranch. These kids were experimented on, though they don't know this. They just know that each of them has unique abilities. Margo has trained them in all combat situations, as well as, given them love, and a home to call their own. Margo leaves for a conference, and the teenagers don't hear from her as planned. They are determined to find her. They will meet new allies in their cause to find their mother. Along the way, they will discover truths about themselves. Despite the tragic truths, the teenagers will face difficult obstacles along the way with loyalty, determination,courage, and help from new allies, and a pet coyote named Maze, to rescue Margo. Will they succeed? What does the future hold for them? Will they find Dr. Williams who experimented on them. Many questions will be answered in this story and future books of this series.

I've never read anything by this author before. I'm thrilled to have found her. She has a fantastic way in words, in describing the world and characters of this story. The pace was excellent . Smooth and steady, and fast when action occurred. I found myself engrossed into this world with its realistic characters. I loved the fact that an animal was part of this heroic rescue. They showed so much emotion through their actions. The storyline was unique, heartfelt, and definitely intriguing. It contains loads of loyalty, suspense, bravery, courage, determination, intrigue, and betrayal. These are facets which make for an excellent read. There is no romance, but does mention an attraction. In my opinion, this story was well-edited.

I found the book cover to be eye catching and fits the story. This is book one of the Winter's Saga. Several of the books are out now, so there will be no long waiting to find out what happens next.

I definitely recommend this book for all readers, family and friends. I'll continue to read more of this series. Happy Reading!!!!

Really good read. Entertaining with lots of surprises that keep you hooked.

The only complaint............lack of editing/proofreading, which resulted in lots of errors - spelling, typos, grammar etc which was a shame, it spoilt an excellent book.

I liked the book. It was written well, the characters are very likeable, and the story line is fast-paced. With that said, the entire time I was reading this I was reminded of James Patterson's series "Maximum Ride". The two series are very different - these characters are much more likeable, the abilities are different, and the main characters grew up in a loving home instead of mostly fending for themselves. But the whole "Main character leads a group of altered humans against an evil corporation run by an evil man who has a group of altered humans who are also altered and have more abilities" is the same.

I'm not sure if I will buy the sequel to this or not. I almost feel like I've already read this book. Although if I think of this as a foundation for the series, the similarity to "Maximum Ride" is more acceptable.
I really hope the series distinguishes itself as it progresses.

I have two additional comments. One is that God is mentioned in this series, as is the main characters praying. I was pleasantly surprised that this did not overwhelm the story. In the past I have found that books either mention God all the time - to the point of it being distracting, or not at all. I found it very authentic for the main characters to plead for the lives of their family. I cannot think of another book that handled that balance so well. Very well done.

This is a very, very minor thing, but seriously, why are the chapters so short?! I don't need a new chapter every three pages, thank you.

What an amazing opening to a thrilling series!
Luellen crafts a wonderful paranormal fiction story with great characters, meaningful dialogue and driving plot lines. When the book opens, we meet Dr. Margo Pullman, a brilliant scientist who lands her dream job at 'The Institute'. Once there she realizes that Dr. Williams, her boss, and the antagonist of the story, is running experiments on children. The experiments cause the children to have heightened abilities. Her heart breaks for three of the children that she sees on her tour of the facility and decides to run away with them and raise them as her own. She destroys his work on her way, with the hope that what was done to the three children in her charge could not be done again in the future. She was wrong. For twelve years she is able to keep them safe from the diabolical doctor, but once he relocates her, his only goal is to reacquire the children.
Meg, the oldest child is the protagonist. The story is written from her perspective. She is a study in extremes. She fights hard, but loves harder. She is admired by her younger brothers Alik and Evan. The dialogue between them shows the author's commitment to intentional relationships. Meg's pet is a coyote she rescued as a pup. The way that relationship was written was truly a-mazing. (Pun intended!) Their relationship to their mom--now called Dr. Winter-- would be the envy of any parent to be sure! The development of the story and introduction of subplots drives the action forward in a way that compels the reader to continue reading. This book has it all, suspense, action, romance, and even some jaw dropping plot twists.
If you like reading books driven by strong characters, this is an excellent one to pick up! Although it is listed as YA fiction, the themes in it can be embraced and enjoyed by any age. I was pleasantly surprised to see a note at the end of this book that said the second was already on Amazon! I bet you can guess what I did shortly after reading book one! :) Pick this book up. You will not be disappointed! :)
