First of all, I found this novella on my Nook for free! Secondly,I know a lot of people when they start to read this are probably like "here we go again another dystopian themed series." and while that is true of this book, it doesn't make it any less intriguing. This prequel is only 66 pages, but I could not stop reading it! I devoured it and I definitely want more! I want to know what happens to Jane and the people who live in the ruins of a destroyed city, who find her. Who is Thanatos and why is he different from the other "Beautiful Ones"? And also why have the "Beautiful Ones" reverted back to an age of castles and motes? This novella leaves me with more questions than answers, but I find that to be oddly exhilarating! I unfortunately couldn't find The Chosen Ones on my Nook. It says it is supposed to be out Spring of 2014, but here it is summer and it's still not out. I really want (need) the next book in my life! I will definitely update you all if and when it comes out! By the way if you didn't catch from my review you really need to read this prequel!lol I was not familiar with the Beautiful Ones series until I came upon this ebook via the Kindle Store. Now normally I don't buy kindle books (I always get the free ebooks) but this Prequel is making me challenge that decision. It really sets up the story and the thing that popped out for me in the book was that it was a mix of Dystopian and Paranormal genres as opposed to the Dystopian/Sci-Fi or Dystopian/action that I'm used to reading. I'm still debating whether or not to buy the ebook, but if I do choose to buy it, I hope it is not a choice I regret, seeing as how the prequel was rather interesting.
