With more and more Red Helixes turning up missing or dead, the Shadow Ravens are ready to take their fight to Doctor Nagi himself.

But breaking into Alpha Citadel is no cakewalk, and Quanta isn’t so sure about this whole “teamwork” thing.

If she and the Ravens can’t learn to work together, no amount of rewinding time will save them from the inevitable.

And if the Seligo win, ...more

"But I was the idiot who'd led us down this path. For better or worse, I had to walk it."

It's been a month since Quanta and Altair escaped Theta Citadel and now they're hiding out, training until they can defeat Doctor Nagi once and for all. At their new base, they are joined by Cipher, Knight, Dex, and Devan! And the two of them seem to be desperately trying to find their place within the Shadow Ravens still.

The beginning of the story is a little slower compared to the previous books, but "But I was the idiot who'd led us down this path. For better or worse, I had to walk it."

At their new base, they are joined by Cipher, Knight, Dex, and Devan! And the two of them seem to be desperately trying to find their place within the Shadow Ravens still.

The beginning of the story is a little slower compared to the previous books, but this isn't necessarily a bad thing. I enjoyed seeing the team slowly start trusting one another as the story progressed. It does pick up after they find out that Altair's sister, Cassie, was taken by Doctor Nagi, along with other people they care about. They all decide to risk their lives and set out to rescue them.

Okay, so I loved Altair in this book! I mean I liked him in the previous books, but he felt more like his own character this time around. His focus wasn't solely on Quanta, he was dealing with guilt for the choices he's made and how it ended up affecting Cassie. And I enjoyed seeing this side of him! Quanta was just as great as ever, too! She has more control of her powers now which made her more certain of herself. She's still brave but a lot more confident. Both of them sure have come a long ways since we first met them!

All of the characters were still great! The team's dynamic made the story fun since they are all so different. And they end up teaming up with unlikely allies where a few more characters (with twists !!) are introduced. Even a few old faces pop up, making Quanta and Altair's stories truly come full circle.

When the team finally takes the fight to Doctor Nagi, the pacing really picks up and the action gets intense! They all have to overcome a lot of obstacles, and there are plenty of twists that will keep you turning the pages. Lola Dodge's writing is still fantastic! I love how she was able to bring up things from the past (that I never really thought we'd see again) and continue to tell this story. It was definitely a crazy, fun ride at the end!

The story wraps up nicely, even if my heart did beat a little faster at a certain part! There are no real cliffhangers, but the story is left open to explore in the future. And there are SO many possibilities for where they could take this series! Personally, I'd love to see more Dex and Cassie in the future. I really grew to love those 2 characters!

Overall, I loved the fourth installment of this series. Even with a slower beginning, it quickly picked up and kept me wondering what would happen next! There is plenty of action, great friendships, fun sci-fi aspects, and some swoony moments, too! If you've enjoyed the previous books then you must read this one. If you haven't read this series then I highly recommend checking them out. It's great for fans of sci-fi/dystopian stories!

Rating: 5 Stars

We left off with our rebels having to disband camp and separate putting a damper on their goals to fight Doctor Nagi and the whole Helix system. They are back on defensive as more Reds end up dead or go missing. Cipher, Devan, and Quanta are making the most of their hiding out trying to train to use their abilities as a team. It's not easy. Even with her ability to see into the future or rewind time things are as dangerous as ever. Even working as a team with all the power between them Seligo have established power and masses on their side. The must work to save their friends and put an end to Doctor Nagi once and for all or never find a moment of peace.

You probably know if you've read my other reviews for this series I adore these couples and I ship them hard. Quanta and Tair are adorable and I love seeing Cipher and Knight through the eyes of my other favorites because I get a win / win in seeing them both! Quanta continues to astound me with her strength. If you think about her powers she seems all powerful but this series does a great job of showing not just the benefits but well thought out flaws/troubles with the power. More importantly is shows her mental strength to be able to push past all the negative images she sees and look for the good. Tair is more physically powerful but he's also all about using his brain to solve problems and is one of the things that connects them. In the last book we lost the mental connection between the two, so no more internal conversations which just like for the characters it took a moment to adjust too. I found myself thinking just tell him/her in your mind…and then Quanta/Tair would think how she missed being able to do just that. I was there with them.

They were kind of made for one another sure but their connection has always felt so well thought out and natural. Plus even if it hasn't been that long they have probably rewound time enough to give them several months of extra time together just saying. They get one another and I love when characters have that. The ability to look at the other and know something is off or know what they are thinking and lets be honest in a story when you are constantly in a fight for your life that's a huge quality. But more so than just my couples, and I even feel like we might have the beginning of another couple in the future happening, just an inkling I had while reading, we have the team. All of these different personalities working together and trying to adapt to one another. Two guys are all about their ladies and then you have Dex who's just there to say the most colorful things.

There is lots of action happening as well I mean they are fighting a war. I really enjoy how the story is written in the way of the rewinds. We don't see every aspect the same with a slight variation it's more we see some trips and others we just hear about which helps keep the pacing up but also really focuses more on Quanta and Tair and their reactions to the rewind. They have to readjust plans based on what happened (aka what went wrong) but that usually comes with the pain of the rewind and seeing someone (if not all) you care for die. Emotionally draining. Even though you know the ability to rewind is there every time something happened to one of my crew I got super nervous because who knows what could happen.

In Quanta Rewind we also dive a bit more into the world as a whole. We've been inside the Citadel, the Voids, and with the Ravens. We see there is more to the world. I'm excited to see what the next book will focus on as there are so many items that could take the lead and make an interesting story. I highly recommend this series as always they are super fast and fly right by in one sitting!

I received this book for free through Goodreads Giveaways and have chosen to give my honest opinion about it.
In today's age of marvelous sci-fi and dystopian fiction, it can be incredibly difficult to keep up. However, Lola has added an amazing addition to a [successfully] ambitious series. I absolutely loved it! While I did not have the fortune of reading the first three books, I was perfectly fine reading this book as a standalone, since the character development was just as unique and the ...more

I was t too impressed with this book. I know it took me so long to finish it, and that’s because of school and work. But honestly I wasn’t missing too much.

I’m happy Quanta and Tair got their happy ending and no one died, but ultimately I could have played this one out in my head. There’s never anything really sad about the series because Quanta can just rewind.

Oh ya we all just died here let me rewind. I’m missing that sadness in loosing characters. Don’t get me wrong they went through a lot, ...more

Not ready to say gooodbye

Wow, I hope there's more books in the future because I am not ready for this series to end. I need to see what Quanta and Tair, Cipher, Knight, Devan, and Lady Eva get into next. There's so much more potential for these characters.

I love this series and Quanta Rewind gave me a captivating book to indulge in. The character development is fantastic with plots and twists that kept me hooked. Definitely a 5 star book in every way, in my opinion.

I received this book as an arc from the author and publisher for an honest review.

This was a pretty quick read, I finished in the same day I started. It was a typical ya style book, it didn't really grab my attention all that much. Maybe if i go back and read the first few in the series.

I love this series, and hopefully in this book the author actually gets something done other then just having them constantly wait around being dramatic and doing nothing. Can't wait for it to come out.

Ce livre sera-t-il Qui aurait cru que quatre ans après je serais toujours autant embarquée par The Shadow Ravens et surtout dans la suite des aventures de Quanta et Altair ! Plus le temps passe, plus leur histoire se bonifie avec une qualité d’écriture totalement incroyable. J’ai lu Quanta Rewind d’une traite, en à peine 3h et je n’en reviens toujours pas ! L’histoire reprend quelques semaines après la fin du tome précédente et contre toute attente, Quanta en est encore le personnage principal. Ce livre sera-t-il la conclusion de sa fantastique aventure ? Rien n’est moins sûr !

Quanta continue de mûrir, de s’ouvrir au monde et aux autres. Elle est enfin stabilisée et utilise ses pouvoirs de façon inédite. On voit bien qu’elle a passé un cap dans le travail sur soi, avec ses pouvoirs mais aussi avec les autres Ravens. Cependant, c’est loin d’être la seule relation qui a évolué, sa romance avec Altair est bien plus profonde, stable et adulte que jamais. C’est pourquoi je trouve qu’on a définitivement quitté l’univers YA ici et c’est pas plus mal.

Altair se remet peu à peu en question et voit son passé d’un œil bien différent. Son histoire, sa famille, son entourage, rien n’est tel qu’il ne le parait et il semble bien s’être aveuglé avec ses propres double-jeux d’espion. Mais dans le fond il est toujours le même, un protecteur prêt à tout pour Quanta et un amant tendre, attentif et loyal. D’ailleurs, on a du mal à croire qu’il est celui qu’il est aujourd’hui avec une enfance et des parents comme les siens, mais je pense qu’on peut remercier Cassie pour ça.

Quand aux personnages secondaires, ils sont toujours aussi nombreux et marquants, avec bien entendu le couple Cipher-Knight que l’on connait déjà sur le bout des doigts. Dex se révèle peu à peu et nous intrigue par la même occasion, tout comme Devan et son incroyable pouvoir. Cependant, je pense qu’elle est trop jeune pour le moment et manque clairement de maturité pour prendre l’histoire à sa charge. Eva est toujours aussi mystérieuse, au point de mettre dans le doute, sans parler de Nagi qui est toujours aussi pédant et avide de pouvoir.

En parlant de ces deux-là, l’intrigue continue telle qu’on l’a connait déjà, une bataille qui fait rage entre les Selligos de Nagi et les Ravens d’Eva. On sent qu’un dénouement approche, mais sera-t-il une conclusion ou seulement un tournant dans un avenir plus sombre ? Les Hellixes changent, leur avenir repose entre les mains de Quanta qui cherche avant tout son propre bonheur et la liberté. Pourtant, il était intéressant de voir comment fonctionne leur société qui est loin d’être juste et équilibré, plus d’une fois on voit bien qu’il suffit d’un petit geste bien placé pour que tout s’effondre.

Lola Dodge m’a une fois de plus convaincu avec sa fluidité et sa conviction. Elle décrit une utopie devenue dystopie, où l’Humanité s’est perdue dans sa recherche de l’Immortalité et de la Beauté. C’est une critique acérée et intéressante de notre société, ce vers quoi on tend au fil des années. Avec un peu d’humour, beaucoup d’action, une histoire bien ficelée et une histoire d’amour très belle, Quanta Rewind ne pouvait qu’être un coup de cœur. Vivement la suite, même si je ne sais pas trop à quoi m’attendre, alors étonnez-moi =) ...more

I can't really summarize much because then I would be spoiling it, but this a very good series and this book in particularly was interesting. Quanta is a girl who can see various futures through a series of threads. Altair, Quantas partner, can rewind the future if some outcomes come out to be not so like able. The storyline was well written and very sophisticated. The story was not a drag and the ending was a bit confusing. It looks like there could be another book, but I am not entirely Sure. ...more
