Archon's Queen by Matthew S. CoxMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
The Past Will Not Set You Free
This series must be read in order. The first book is Prophet Of The Badlands. This is the second book. I can't wait to read Grey Ronin!
While set within the same world as Virtual Immortality and the Division Zero series there is no crossover of characters or storylines as of yet but if you enjoy this world reading these books will just enrich the experience! I highly recommend reading all the books in this world :)
Great Britain is no place to be Psionic. Being "Registered" comes with a remote control bomb planted in your body and either death, prison or forced Government work. Anna was forced to kill her father in self defense and then live on the streets to escape becoming Registered. Fear and degradation are her constant companions. Penny is her best friend and adopted sister but Anna can't risk letting even her know of her true nature. It is mostly because she fears rejection... But also to keep Penny safe. If anyone found out... And if Penny knew and didn't report it... She could end up paying for her silence with her life. The price of hiding from the CSB is living in a drugged out haze. When Spawny brings home Faye, Anna realizes something has got to give! She can't let the girl end up like she has after all. Can she change? How much lower can Anna possibly fall? Will she ever be able to actually get clean? Or will she die a pathetic drugged out whore? Can she live with herself if she continues on the path she has been on?
***This series is suitable for adult readers who enjoy futuristic sci-fi action adventure set in a post postapocalyptic dystopian world filled with superstitions and prejudices where paranormal elements fight with elements of the government and society over the fate of anyone with paranormal powers :)
