I have!!Well now you can!
Fiction express, which went live yesterday, now lets us vote on what should happen next in the story!
I was very lucky to receive the first chapters of all four books before the site went live so was able to read the first chapter of the first two books over the last week.
Being honest, l didn't know what to expect and thought that they really needed to be gripping to keep people interested and for people to want to read more and go back.
Both The Last Symbol and The Soterion Mission drew me in straight away and took me into two different worlds which l definitely want to explore more off!
The Last Symbol:
Miko Agnosta lives in a world where 13 year-olds' futures are determined by a government machine. When his best friend Lok is banished, Miko begins to question the system under which he lives. His eyes are abruptly opened when he next meets Lok and discovers a forbidden world that he never knew existed. With his mind full of questions, which path will Miko choose to take? Who can be trusted? Is anyone telling Miko the truth?
My Thoughts
This is my favourite of them so far (out of the two) and will definitely be following this story. I think it has already, in only a small number of pages, made a great story and l found it hard to vote for what l want to happen next.
Rebecca is a really good writer and has some very good ideas!
The Soterion Mission:
In a post-apocalyptic world where no-one lives beyond their teenage years, the Constant residents of Della Tallis are surprised and fearful when stranger Roxanne appears in their midst, pursued by the barbaric Zeds. She carries the Zed tattoo on her forehead, but claims to be a Constant. When she explains that she has come to save them, and tells them the story of the Soterion, the Constant council must decide whether to trust her or kill her as a spy. Will Roxanne survive long enough to find the legendary Soterion, or will it be left to Cyrus and the other Constants to continue the mission? And there is every chance that the Zeds will get there first…

My thoughts
I liked this one, l didn't enjoy it as much as The Last Symbol but l like the idea that no one lives past their teenage years, it is a very unique idea and strange how they live!
If you want to read the first chapter of the four books made sure you hop over to The Fiction Express!!! You won't regret it.
