    A distant planet. A dying colony. A deadly conspiracy. Fight a corrupt system in Ticket to Earth,...

After breaking her arm in a circus accident, Ophelia Flax finds herself in a fancy hospital in Switzerland. Another patient there, Imogen Melchor, has been asleep for 8 days. Her parents claim it is related to the Sleeping Beauty legend, which is strong in the area. Meanwhile, Professor Gabriel Penrose is in the area, officially to track down local legends, but really in hopes of finding Ophelia again. Will he succeed? What happened to Imogen?

This is a novella written specifically to wrap up loose ends after the series was canceled. As a result, it will appeal most to series fans. With only 100 pages to work with, the story is fast paces with something always happening to move it forward. The new characters are a bit short changed, but Ophelia and Gabriel are strong, and the plot kept me guessing until the end.

Rayne of blood
So this movie excist, bloodrayne came out the same month as uwe bolls other terrible movie- alone in the dark. So in 2006, you didnt get one but two terrible uwe boll movies that came out the same month, both based off of video games.

Bloodrayne is about- In 18th-century Romania, after spending much of her life in a traveling circus, human-vampire hybrid Rayne (Kristanna Loken) escapes and plots to take down her evil vampire father, Kagan (Ben Kingsley). When she's discovered by three vampire hunters, Vladimir (Michael Madsen), Katarin (Michelle Rodriguez) and Sebastian (Matt Davis), she manages to convince them to spare her life and join her cause. But slaying a vampire as powerful as Kagan will be no easy task.

The cast is wasted on this film. Im not sure why they signed up for this movie in the first place, but their did.

Its a god awful movie that no one, i mean no one should suffer through.

My first completed read of 2016! And it was pretty amazing!

This pulled at my heart-strings in a big way. I loved the beginning bit where she was lying to him about her relationship preferences and then the modelling bit and then the falling deeper bit. The dad thing threw me a little just before it fast-forwarded 6 years to the time we see in "Hearts of Fire" at the circus. And then it tugged at my heart-strings even more and I just wanted to cry like a baby.

It was lovely to read Oliver King's story. How he started out so different to how we read him in Hearts of Fire, how he was a powerful man in London, how he fell in love with this Alexis we hear so much about... Thinking back, I think I'd like to cry for him.

This a brilliant addition to an already pretty amazing series. I can't wait to read more of them!
