"A classic, multi-volume, historically accurate sea saga about the British Navy in the 19th Century. I tore through all eleven of them in three months!"

Anne Tyler's 20th novel is a touching family saga, told backwards. You can read my review here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2015/02/03/a-home-for-ties-that-bind/

Slow and mostly ineffective, coupled with some problematic stereotypes, The Phantom Menace was a disappointing reintroduction into the Star Wars saga, but it's the one we got:

Completely hooked! Thankfully it's an 11 book saga!
The first of an 11 book saga. Hooked from the start. I felt a connection with Keira (the main character), and shared emotions with her. It's very important to be able to feel what the characters are going through and the Author has done this very well.
It's paranormal, it's romance, and it's horror. Its a surprisingly great combination!

Great story
As with a lot of marvel late, it is very long and a bit too much filler. (0 more)
An epic saga nears an end.
This was almost the perfect way to start the end of the epic saga that the marvel cinematic universe has been thus far. A little too much fill and a couple of plot holes but overall this was an amazing film and well worth the wait.

The third book of the four part saga continues directly from the shattering events of the second and doesn't let up on the pace, or the twists.

Barrett Grayson is in custody, awaiting his long avoided FBI interview. But all he wants to do is get home to see his father before he dies. Meanwhile Sergeant Jackson's deal with the cartel means that someone is going to pay a heavy price.

The story follows all the protagonists from the saga as they each face their own struggles and make their own choices - for good or bad. As with the saga as a whole the writing is gripping and intense. There are many different plot strands interwoven here from police procedural to romance but each one is given time and space to develop and the reader is drawn into each one and pulled along.

As with the other books, the writing is superb. I would strongly recommend the Grey Areas saga to anyone. It is an extremely accomplished work of fiction.
