Crescent Bound: Volume 1

"Crescent Bound" by Rush, Karli, published by Karli Rush. Alyssa Worthington is the daughter and sole heir to the most prestigious coven in the witch world. Her childhood has been spent in the mundane human world learning to blend in and hide who she truly is, and it is here, during her last year that she meets a striking ex-high school quarterback from a small town in Montana who will turn her world upside down. Alyssa holds the element of fire, unlike her best friends Lisa and Megan, who are both air elementals. It is the elemental powers that reside inside which require positive thoughts and positive actions in order to maintain this magickal connection. What would happen to a witch that let this get out of control? How can evil become the driving force behind revenge and death?Dark secrets, dark magick and a desperate desire for revenge will bring Alyssa to the brink of destruction. She is being chased, but this pursuit is a silent one and her chaser has but one goal, Alyssa’s complete and total destruction. Will she overcome this dark threat and begin to live out her destiny? Will she survive and if so, will she lose herself as part of the price for being alive? Or, will her destiny rest on being crescent bound?With all these dark forces creeping around silently in Alyssa’s life, her coven pushes for answers, some of the answers about an eighth and missing coven, in the witch world, lie with her new interest. Marcus may be the key to unlocking the mystery of the silent darkness threatening the seven remaining covens.ReviewReview by: vertigospiral88 on March 02, 2012 : When reviewing this book, I feel that one must take into account that this is a first published work for this author. From a technical standpoint I find that the book begins on a good note, crescendos well and then has a very satisfying ending. The progress in technique shown by the author from the first page to the last is staggering!As far as the story goes, it's excellent! Well-envisioned, well-executed, and full of memorable characters doing memorable things. Not much more you can ask for there.All-in-all, I certainly enjoyed Crescent Bound and I highly anticipate the rest of this series. Book details: published 2012.
