The Kuthun (The Kuthun #1) by S.A. Carter - Starting August 3rd 2015 - Full

[Sarah Elizabeth]

EVERY BLOODLINE MUST HAVE A FIRST

When Elena is given a kuthun on the morning of her birthday
she is unaware of the ancient magic it wields.
Tormented by dreams, and haunted by a curse that has plagued
her family of witches for centuries, she must uncover the
truth about her destiny, or face an uncertain future.
As the last of her bloodline, Elena must confront her enemy
in a fight for survival that sees her forced towards the
brink of darkness.
When the time comes to choose between a life she knows, and a
life she must give, will she be willing to make the ultimate
sacrifice?

Hello Sarah could you let me know when we will receive to read...? x

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Yep, sorry, this has been delayed because I forgot to message the author with the crazy challenges that are going on around here at the moment. I'm going to try and sort it out now ☺

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Okay everybody, I've messaged the author. I just want to say again that I'm sorry, and that this was totally my fault, not the fault of the author xx

[Sibil]

Is it possible to get an Audio version? I'd review happily and honestly if this was possible.....

[Sarah Elizabeth]

I don't think so unfortunately.

[Sibil]

20% (view spoiler)[So far it seems ok! I like that she has a dog (or better, a wolf-dog), and Phoebe seems fun. Old Olsen is quite peculiar and I hope that he's important for the story! And I am also liking her uncle and aunt. And I love the font of the chapters' title (hide spoiler)]

[Sibil]

Abbie wrote: "30% - [spoilers removed]"

I totally agree! :(

38%(view spoiler)[For now I prefer the part set in the prensent. It's not a complaint and it's not that the parts set in the past are boring, just less intersting, for now (hide spoiler)]

[Sibil]

Abbie wrote: "39% - [spoilers removed]"

(view spoiler)[Maybe a little too well (hide spoiler)] (43%)

[Siobhan]

just about to start i ddint see my emails it said i had no new emails for a few days then suddenly i had loads lol

[Sibil]

50%(view spoiler)[I love the relationship between Elena and her aunt and uncle. I like that they care for her and that they love each other. Magic and tragedy apart they seem a real family! (hide spoiler)]

[Sibil]

62% (view spoiler)[The thing about the ancient Egypt is intersting and I like the teleporting ability, but it seems a little bit too easy. But I am enjoying the reading (hide spoiler)]

[Siobhan]

5% im liking how this is starting :)

[Sibil]

siobhan wrote: "5% im liking how this is starting :)"

The starting was really good :)

70%(view spoiler)[I like that the uncle is a reincarnation of someone, too! (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Up to chapter 3
(view spoiler)[ I like how the story gradually unfolds and draws me in within the first few pages and the gentle introduction to the characters is a nice change one I like. (hide spoiler)]

[Christina]

my review

[Sarah Elizabeth]

Thank you Siobhan ☺

[Siobhan]

(view spoiler)[ I loved how the close a relationship E has with her uncle. I found the time travelling very interesting. (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Up to chapter 4
(view spoiler)[ I'm glad she feels safe with her dog Magi, and that she got if it a few answers from her grandma. The kuthun has an intense power and one that showed quite a disturbing scene, I don't think I would have kept quite so much control at a hanging but the reaction of the women being hung was a little eerie. (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Up to chapter 5
(view spoiler)[ well I'm kind of glad Uncle Jo pried out what had been happening to her on her birthday, although I have to say it didn't take much to get her to spill everything to him, like opening the floodgates it all came out in one big go, not sure if that's to my taste or not would have nice had she been a little more subtle and seemingly more worried but it seems she's reminded of danger by an owl showing up, then does a bout of running and everything is hunky dory again (hide spoiler)]

[Nikki]

Up to chapter 6
(view spoiler)[ well at least some action finally happens, bit unbelievable that someone like Uncle Jo intimidates the police, even considering his past with the military. And yeah going to school a la relative is pretty lame but I bet when she figured out there was a venator there she felt the relief combined with the worry over magi and uncle Jo (hide spoiler)]
