Paradox - The Angels Are Here (Book 1 in the Paradox Series)

I love Patti’s style of writing, it is a book you have to read slowly and carefully, but only so that you don’t miss anything, Patti does such a phenomenal job at describing every detail. I have to thank Patti for allowing me to read her novella and I would recommend this book to all. It is a superb book and I think you will all enjoy it as much as I did.  Patti, yes I loved the book, can I ask one question, can I pleaseeeeeee review book 2 for you - it really was the most amazing book I have read in a long time, and that cliffhanger at the end *panting for more* !!  Natalie Hillier

 Review by: Suzy Turner on July 28, 2011 : star star star star star
This is so totally different from anything I’ve read recently and I have to say… WOW. Patti Roberts is a truly remarkable writer. The way she weaves her tales among the story is extraordinary. I can honestly say I was in awe of the way she managed to do it. I’d love to have that talent.

Jayde Scott rated it 5 of 5 stars 
There's no doubt Patti Roberts is someone who knows how to build strong characters and a vivid setting. I liked the darker side of some of the angels. It was a unique and convincing way to view spirituality and the angels' role within humanity. I also liked how they were connected to Grace and Grace's role within the larger picture. I do agree with others who said some questions were left unanswered, but I feel that was necessary in order to be able to explore those in detail in books to follow.

I wasn't supposed to read this book until I finished two others I had in front of it. After a peak inside I was sucked in and finished the book in one evening. I rarely give five stars, but the fact that I couldn't sleep until I finished it deserves it. Julia Crane

Patti Roberts writes clearly and evokes an emotional reaction as well as deep thought in her readers, clearly an amazing writer. The reader will look forward to the sequel of this novel. – Krystal

I honestly couldn’t stop reading and finished the book in less than 3 hours because I wanted to know what was going to happen next – Alaiel Kreuz

For myself it gave me my first taste of the world of Angels through Patti Roberts eyes and I was not disappointed. – Darkiss Reads

    I love A, its bright and really eye catching, but my vote goes to B, its eye catching but mysterious and I would be more likely to buy it to see whats inside:D

    Well, I've seen the exact models from the last two on two other books, so matter how much i love them, I'd choose the first one

  3. Emerald BarnesAugust 28, 2011 at 11:23 PM

    I would definitely choose A!

    I haven't read the first book yet, but I bought it and it's on my to read list. However, that being said, Book Cover A caught my attention!

    I vote for C. From a guy view point, the blonde cover girl is the most beautiful and more menacing. The fur and the knife...don't believe I'd mess with her, but I'd want to know her story.

  9. UnknownAugust 29, 2011 at 4:34 AM

    My vote goes to cover A, I love the colors,her make up,the checkered like pattern of her face and the mask it's so beautiful that would make a really gorgeous cover.A head turner,reminds me of theater.The first time I saw this one I was like wow! :O I'd love to buy and read that.

    I did not choose cover B & C because Cover B, is a bit seductive and dark mysterious looking which kinda contradicts with the title Progeny of Innocence.But I like the lighting & hiding in the leaves concept.On the other hand Cover C, is more of the fight scene type,too common,I don't like how she held her sword it's too girly and weak looking but what I do like is her fierce focused eyes & her costume.

    So after weighing the pros and cons Cover A For the win :D

  41. Diem Burden | AuthorSeptember 2, 2011 at 7:14 PM

    Love A, the purple does it for me (possibly because I have just painted a wall that colour???). It is a beautiful cover, and I like the colourful detail on the mask contrasted against the hazy background. The bright red, party-open lips also hint at something to enjoy.

    I also like B, as it is dark and mysterious... and the girl has an interesting twinkle in her eye, the face is saying something to me...

    C does nothing for me, and a female warrior is nothing new...

    Mmm, difficult choice... but A & B definitely present you with questions to be answered.

    Since I haven't read Book 1 it's hard for me to say, but because the title has the word "innocence', I would go for B since that one seems the most innocent to me...

  53. Paul KaterSeptember 5, 2011 at 5:35 PM

    I would think B. A is nice, but as the story is on Altair the mask in A is too "Earth". And C does not strike me as "innocent"...

    ReplyDelete
  54. Vanessa MaliseSeptember 6, 2011 at 11:49 AM

    B. The mask on the cover of A borders on clown-like and garish, but B makes you want to know more about the book. C just makes me think of Disney's Mulan.

    I vote B. I don't care much for C at all, it does not depict angels very well. A just doesn't say angels to me, it has more of a midieval feel to it. The model in B looks too old for the story, but it fits soo much better with the paranormal theme. Cover A's model almost looks as though she has wings the way the light flitters behind her.

    Having read none of the story (yet-though I am interested), I would choose B. In my opinion, A, while pretty and colorful, looks like it's trying too hard, and C holds "Warrior Princess" undertones (though, if that is what your main character is or becomes, C is my second choice). At a glance at a bookshelf, though, I would pick up B.

    Good luck! I look forward to reading the series.

    A is great, but I prefer B. C looks like something from She-Ra; it's a good pic, but it's a bit evocative of old-school fantasy, not mysterious and intriguing like your work. B is perfect.
