Abraham's Men

by Kristen Selleck

College sophomore Chloe Adams returns to Birch Harbor determined to find the remnants of the secret society known as Abraham's Men.

Yet, the only clues she has are the words 'find Ian Rose' and a strange coded journal that once belonged to her father.

No longer able to hear the voices that have plagued her for most of her life, and finally having the loving home she has always dreamed of, Chloe struggles to define what she wants--

Until fate and her mentor conspire to offer her the chance to discover the truth.

Unfortunately, the truth might kill her.

About the author

Kristen Selleck is avidly evil. Until recently, she worked as a mad scientist. After several diabolical attempts at world domination proved unsuccessful (most notably, building an army of robots from used pipettes, empty reagent boxes, and other things left lying around the lab), she decided to pick up the pen. She used the pen to poke an annoying lady at the gas station in the eyeball. Then she decided to write. She has been known to speak with a strong Russian accent. This is inexplicable due to the fact that she was born in Detroit. It has also been documented that she likes vodka, roller coasters, things which are purple, and blowing things up with dry ice. She abhors kittens, wood paneling popularized in the 1970's, and her arch-nemesis Jimmy (the Evil Overlord of Specimen Processing). She was last known to reside in Grand Rapids, and may be in the company of two tiny minions, and her devoted henchman, Shad. If seen, please contact the FBI immediately (she owes someone in Accounting a sandwich).

Reviews

[Shelli Black Rose · Rating 3 out of 5]

This book was on par with the first in the series. No better, no worse.

Again, the story was tight and well written. I felt like I was right there with the characters. This one was a bit more of a page-turner than the first one, though. I read it in a much shorter time, and found myself not wanting to put it down.

I was pleased to find that this one had more opportunities to pause reading without having to re-read several paragraphs to catch up. I was sorely disappointed about the amount of spelling and grammatical errors. Whoever edited this book did a terrible job, and I'm surprised they didn't learn their lesson from the first book! I know I read several reviews that mentioned the editing problems.

A major pet peeve of mine is when people use "of" instead of "have". For example: "I would of liked this more with proper editing."

Another 3/5 stars (lost a point for editing). I look forward to reading the third book in the series, and I'm sure the fourth, once it's released.
