The Ophelia Prophecy was an interesting book. I really enjoyed the concept and thought Sharon Lynn Fisher delivered the story very well. I found this book to be very escapist and enjoyed the action scenes. Although this is listed as a romance I wasn't expecting that to be the main drive of the novel. I actually really enjoyed the romance. I thought there was some great chemistry between the characters and found the sex scenes to be pretty hot!

It's not you book, it's me, to a ratio of 70/30 blame....if this makes any sense whatsoever.

I admit that the blurb of this one wasn't as entrancing as Ghost Planet (so entrancing that it reveals something that should not be said to better amaze the reader!), and that the only reason I requested this title, was because GP had been such an amazing read.

This one: A sci fi novel in which a genetically altered species was created, with insect like characteristics. Insects o_O...
Insects... *shiver*
I had no idea what the author was going to accomplish with bugs, but I was ready to be amazed!


Let me say this: I had to re-read the beginning of the story two times, because I disliked it so much the first time I read it; and after that,Ii could only force myself to keep reading a few pages a day.

Of course it came a moment, when I got lost in all the futuristic setting, so I had to go back and give it another try. And guess what?
Second time around reading it, it did get better.
Although I continue not being a fan of descriptions and storytelling that clearly have a paranormal mark...
You know, the main characters look at one another and there's instant lust, comments of "mates" and things like that.

Too much telling and not enough showing

I can't help feeling that this story needed at least two books to have been properly developed.
As it was, I felt that mostly everything in it, was only superficially touched.
With this being a complex sci-fi novel that tries to be every-place at once, most of the times, the storyline felt like info-dump.

I was unable to finish the book, but thank you for the opportunity.
