Descent by Cameo Renae - Review


Title: Descent (Hidden Wings, 0.5)

Author: Cameo Renae

Genre: Young Adult Fantasy

Tour Host: Lady Amber's Tours



Before I review Descent, I need to say that Hidden Wings, the book that Descent is based on, was far more than expected, and that you should really read it before reading Descent. Descent is a back story from Hidden Wings, and let me tell you, it's a good one. It is a beautiful love story between Alaine and Samuel. I loved their connection! The book itself also explains tons of stuff from Hidden Wings. It's such an informative and eventful book! Especially for the series! I am glad that Cameo Renae wrote this, because it clears up tons of stuff. I would definitively give this book 5 out of 5 book-a-saur paws! 

Book Description:
This novella takes it back…way back…to the beginning. A place where Emma’s lineage begins, and where answers lie in unraveling secrets of the past.

Excerpt:
Lucifer. His voice was like the softest of velvet and the sweetest of honey, filling the Heavens with the most glorious melodies. His music reverberated through every cell of your being; filling, lulling, and entrancing you with his song and worship.
Because of this, he was praised by all that surrounded him. But, it would also be that constant praise which allowed pride to seep into the tiniest crevices of his heart. Pride slowly turned to jealousy. Jealousy turned to hate, and it was that hate which began to alter and callous his once pure heart.
As time endured, Lucifer’s pride, his jealousy, his hate, and finally his deceit... led to THE FALL.


Excerpt from Hidden Wings:
Holy crap… what do I do? What do I do?
Then Dominic’s words rang through my head. Go big, or go
home.
I really, really wanted to go home, but I didn’t think knocking
my mud covered converse shoes together three times was magical
enough to send me there. But heck, this all seemed like some
twisted fairytale anyway, so I decided to try it. I closed my eyes
and quickly clicked my heels together. One…Two…Three…
I opened my eyes.
Crap!
Whatever. It was worth a try. But, I wasn’t Dorothy, and instead
of a witch and flying monkeys, I had a murderous Fallen Angel
and Darkling. I’d take flying monkeys over the Darkling any day!
I gathered myself, took in a deep breath, and trudged towards
the oncoming evil that lurked around the corner. 


Author Bio:
My family is what keeps my heart beating, and my world a happy place to be.

I love reading great books that whisk me away from reality, even if for a little while. :) Writing is my passion. I love creating new worlds and new characters, and taking wondrous adventures with them.

In My Dreams & Hidden Wings were both recently published through Crushing Hearts and Black Butterfly Publishing. Descent (A Hidden Wings novella) will be released May 15, 2013, and Broken Wings (Book 2 in the Hidden Wings Series) will be released June 1, 2013.

One day I will find my magic wardrobe, and ride away on my magical unicorn... ♥ Until then... I'll keep writing! ;)
