The Shade Ring Book 1 of The Shade Ring Trilogy eBook Connie Lacy Reviews
I'm not a romance fan at all and picked this up as a science fiction read. What a surprise! The climate-based storyline is near to my heart so I was drawn in immediately. The pace of the story is quick, the characters are well developed and interesting, and the suspense keeps you turning pages. Well done and I'm looking forward to the sequel.
For the sake of full disclosure, the author and I are doing a review swap. I read hers and she's reading mine.
I want to start by saying that I didn't expect to enjoy this book so much. I almost turned down the swap after reading the book description on . Climate change... not my favorite subject. The concept of a shield to protect the Earth at first reminded me strongly of Highlander II which... don't even get me started. I don't know why the actors agreed to do that script. But I digress. Yet, something about the book piqued my curiosity. So I said yes and bought the book on . Which, by the way, is way, way under-priced for the quality of story you're getting. Connie, go up you price tag. Seriously.
So, to the review part of this review. Connie wrote an engaging story. It's really that simple. She did justice to all of the themes the book's premise presented, even if I don't agree with some of the conclusions. The pacing, description, and characterization was spot on. The writing was excellent. The dialog was natural and witty. I loved the interactions between the characters. So, even though I went in with reservations I found myself sucked in and finished it all in one night.
The only thing that really keeps me from giving this a five star rating has to do with the clones. Maybe my suspension of disbelief was already at it's limit with the vast change in Earth's climate, but I just don't get why people would think clones are soulless or somehow less human. Especially given that clones in the book's world are born to surrogate mothers, not grown in a test tube. I mean, twins have the same DNA, but nobody thinks they're somehow soulless. Maybe I missed something. If somebody else figures it out, please let me know. It's probably going to keep me up at night. Anyhow, I do like how Neave overcomes this social bias, and I especially love the clone-related twists in the story. I just don't get where the bias came from in the first place.
All in all, it was an excellent read and I look forward to reading more from Connie in the future.
I enjoy reading books that draw you into the story and The Shade Ring did. The title is an interesting concept and works, but it's also amazing how some things never change, even over 100 years in the future. There's The Shade Ring and there are shady people. The story is full of twists and turns and good sci-fi with things I didn't see coming, from the beginning to The End. Tons of romance, I'm a guy and it's all good. I enjoyed the read and couldn't put it down, once I got into it. I recommend it and the price was right!
I don't normally read sci-fi, which is what I thought this book was at first glance. However, I found the story to be so much more than expected. It is the story of Naeve, a young woman scientist. The plot includes some very realistic possibilities about the future of our planet, as well as elements of suspense and romance. I really like the start which jumps right into the action with drama, romance and a possible murder.
The author had some great lines, such as "Disapproval hung in the air like the stench of a squirrel that died from the heat and rotted in a gutter." Very good visual!
The only thing that may have detracted slightly from the overall plot was the romance itself, which is why I gave it 4 starts instead of 5. Although good I preferred the main storyline and felt that the romance took me out of the action and in a different direction. Overall I really enjoyed the book and would read another one by this author.
I’ve read many books from this author and I like her science fictions mainly because they’re approachable and enjoyable. I thought the Shade Ring would be harder to read because of the very scientific title and the somewhat austere cover. But it turned out not to be so. It’s well written and intellectual for sure, but no less enjoyable. The romance part is well done, there are plenty of actions, and lots of dramatic scenes at the end. I had a hard time to put it down. What I enjoy the most, however, is not the drama or the action, but the discussions of some imminent issues such as the impacts of global warming and human cloning on the future generations. The elements of Greek tragedies make the literature thought-provoking. Although I have difficulties to accept the nativity of Neave, and the monstrosity of her own father, I must say the contrast of the characters is really the driving force behind the plot.
This is a beautifully written action-packed story set in the future. It has the right amount of romance, a love story that's neither cheesy nor fake. The author pulls no stops when writing her scenes. They evoke a full range of emotions. She smoothly takes you from a wonderful romantic moment, followed by a tense situation, that immediately turns humorous. The book is filled with many such instances, as well as edge-of-the-seat action. When you think you know where the story is heading, along comes a twist in the plot. Well done.
