Monster Mine (Fear University 3) by Meg Collett





Description

I, Sunny Lyons, am chasing my best friend’s ghost.

Or at least I thought I was until Ollie calls me on the phone and tells me to come to Anchorage, Alaska. We find her in a renovated warehouse surrounded by halflings and Hex, her father and the greatest aswang warrior who has ever lived.

While trying to protect Ollie from the people who want to use her as a weapon, I stumble across a secret the halflings will kill to protect—a secret that could save the man I love. I may be the Cowardly Lyon, but I’m willing to do whatever it takes to protect my friends—even if it kills me.

My name is Ollie Volkova, and I am not broken.

Though my friends may say otherwise after I spent three weeks with a sadistic madman. They think I’m crazy, but when a monster called the Manananggal surfaces on the outskirts of Anchorage, my father offers to tell me about my mother in exchange for my help in hunting down the winged creature. It’s a deal I can’t pass up. Not when my mother’s past is so important to my future.

But the more I learn about her, the more I discover about my monster’s soul, and when my father reveals the final, darkest truth, the decision I make will change the course of my life.


This book is recommended for mature readers due to sexual content, violence, and language.

 REVIEW

Monster Mine completely wreaked havoc on my emotions. If you have plans for he day I suggest waiting to start when you know you have a few free hours. My husband was a little disgruntled that I couldn't put it down on his day off. Whoops? This series is one of the few I've read that's worth obsessing over. The characters are real for me and the emotional pull is intoxicating.  

We can  obviously already anticipate the dark and alluring atmosphere in this series to grow darker after the way book two ended. I didn't anticipate, however, our sweet, funny, and loveable Sunny to grow a back bone. Her reaction to Aswang Saliva is a nice touch. I couldn't wait to find out how things would turn out for her and Hatter.  

The relationship between Ollie and Luke completely had me on edge. There’s still mysteries to figure out but what Ollie does with the truths is completely unexpected.  I love Ollie with a die hard, fan girl passion!

I need the next book in this series YESTERDAY! 5 well-deserved stars!
