review 1: To be totally fair, it should be known that I am not a fan of dystopian stories in general. I was attracted to this story because of the Romeo/Juliet qualities more than anything and MJ O’Shea is a fantastic writer.Realistically, this is Romeo and Juliet meets Robin Hood – as there is the conflict between the two Triads as well as Orion’s robbing the rich to give to the poor.The love story was sweet and I liked the two MCs. The smexy scenes were hot and appropriate, not too many, not too few.The names of everyone got burdensome, but it was appropriately explained in the story, so it can be forgiven.All in all it was a nice, short, somewhat dark love story that – if you like dystopian stories – you will probably love, but since I don’t – I only liked it. Bu... moret really, that’s saying a lot for the author, it would have been easy to not like it at all, but it really was well written and interesting.I give it 3.75 hearts out of 5. (You may give it more if that’s your thing. ☺ )
review 2: This is another one of those books that I've had on my Kindle for ages and just kept passing over. I actually bought this on its release day last year, which shows how long I've been putting it off! But once again, I've been left wondering why I didn't read it sooner. Dark Sun was a wonderful read! It was such a perfect mix of science fiction and romance, and I loved the whole rivals to lovers thing that was going on. Lynx and Orion were awesome main characters. This story was interesting, unique and fabulously written - I will definitely be reading it again! less
