review 1: This is the first book in a series and I loved it. I don't really know how to describe it because I feel it had an aspect of all of these, Paranormal, suspense, Thriller, Horror. Genovene and her "family" have caused nothing but pain and horror to Jack and Jeremy's family.Jack, being the "chosen one" went through almost unbelievable horrors during what he thought was going to be a great adventure at the age of 13. His brother Jeremy seemed to hate the world and seemed to have it out for Jack big time. While his grandfather was worried he didn't give Jack any reason to stay away from the woods besides the fact that he was told to stay away from the woods. lol.Jack being a curious 13 year old decides to disobey and next thing he knows he thinks he is going on a grand adventu... morere with a beautiful girl he found in the woods. Little does he know the horrors that would eventually befall him. These events do not stop there though. Things like these tend to follow you and now in his twenties it has found him. There is something about Jack that makes Genovene really want him. Maybe the fact that he is the one that got away.Definitely excited to read book 2 and see what awaits Jack and Jeremy. I highly recommend this book. Aiden really has a way of capturing your attention right from the beginning and if I didn't have obligations I would not have put this book down!
review 2: The premise of this supernatural tale was good. Years ago, Jack's parent disappeared leaving him and his brother, Jeremy, to live with their grandfather on a farm in a small town. Years after their disappearance, Jack investigates a small sphere that sits at the entry to the woods. When Jack ventures beyond the sphere, he finds himself in a beautiful, magical place that mysteriously appears. When a beautiful woman, Genovene, shows up and invites Jack to a feast in their village, he is taken with her beauty and follows her further into the magical community.What he finds there is the answer to not only his parents' disappearance, but the before now unsolved disappearance of many others. He discovers that the magical village is not at all what it seems, but filled with evil that he could never imagine.My problem was not with the story itself but the way it was told. The story was narrated by Jack as he told it to a government agent and the dialogue between the agent and Jack, and the dialogue in general was rather elementary. I feel that relaying the story in a different fashion would have added greatly to the appeal of the book. less
