When the first book, Poison Study, came out some ten years ago, I remember that I loved it but naught else. I find Night Study the most emotional of all the books in any of this book's serieses. This book is also so not good to read before Shadow Study or you will get royally lost. I reckon that this book is better read when you already are in possession of the third book of the Soulfinders series. My Thoughts: The worldbulding and character development are still great! But the story telling style is also the same 'multiple threads' chop shop which drives me up the wall. UNLEASH THE STORM #BlogTour & #Giveaway.That'th What I Thaid! & The Sore Prickly Bear #Boo.Review Disclaimer: Book provided in exchange for an honest review. The Culling' is the first instalment in the Alien Apocalypse series, a dystopian saga for new adults, that will capture the readers' imagination regardless of age. And there is so much more to meet the eyes wherever she looks. The novel is written from Jet's point of view, and the readers discover truths about the alien invaders as soon as she does.

The writing is bold and entertaining, always keeping the readers captivated. The action is fast-paced and detailed, while peppered with Jet's thoughts and info on her life and our planet's fate. The characters are three-dimensional and alive in the readers' mind. Thus, our heroin is now responsible not just for her own survival, but also for his. He is the leverage Richter can use to control Jet. Jet is also loyal to humanity, contrary to the irritating Richter, the pirate who captains the Nirreth culling ship, which takes Jet to the Green Zone (where the Nirreth live), along with her best friend Anaze, who followed her and got captured when trying to help her. Jet is strong-willed and well trained in the art of sword-fighting. What do Nirreth do with the humans they captured? Do they experiment on them? Do they eat them? Jet is about to find out. The fact is that one day, while running an errand in the desolated streets of Vancouver, Jet Tetsuo is captured by a Nirreth culling ship.

One can argue that humans don't need help when it comes to selfish destruction. That they contributed or not to the destruction of the human environment and the extinction of most animals is debatable. She has spent most of her life underground to avoid the Nirreth, the alien people who invaded Earth. Jet Tetsuo is a 19-year-old skag living with her family in a settlement located in the ruins of Vancouver. I chose to read 'The Culling' because the beginning of this novel was set in Vancouver, and because it featured a female main character.
