#005 12th May 2014: THETA WAVES PACK 1 (EPISODES 1- 3) THEA ATKINSON
It took me a while to get into this book with the introduction being a bit confusing however once I got past the initial confusion it was a fast paced thrill ride.
The main characters Theda and Ezekiel are bound together through her power to see visions of others when she is high. As weird as that sounds it actually won't that weird in the book. It may be what causes most of the confusion in the first few chapters it soon becomes interesting as it reveals something new about each character. Ezekiel is a bounty hunter who has been paid to bring these to his master however once he learns about Theda’s power is he'll bent on protecting her from others who may cause her harm. The progression of the relationship between the two main characters is interesting and works very well alongside the individual characters development.
It gets quite confusing towards the end with secondary characters and Ezekiel as I was not sure who was working with "the beast" all along or who joined involuntarily but I suspect that will be explained more in the next episode. To be honest I didn't find any of the other characters other than Theda or Ezekiel likeable probably because they weren't there for very long or threatened Theda.
The book was well paced introducing a new problem and solution in each episode and still ending with a cliff-hanger leaving me the reader wanting more. The pacing of the relationship between Theda and Ezekiel is brilliant as it ties in nicely with everything else that is happening around them and at the end of episode 3 it leaves you genuinely what will happen next.
The storyline was intriguing and continually added new aspects that transformed the characters as each situation developed and new characters were introduced. However it could be confusing at times with situations not being described fully.
Overall I did enjoy the book and the main aspects of the storyline between Theda and Ezekiel however I did not feel secondary characters were introduced as well/ weren’t present long enough for them to make any major impact onto the story other than to pose a threat to Theda which Ezekiel dealt with.
