The Neumarian Chronicles
Publication: August 18th, 2012
Pages: 42
The Great War of 2185 is over, but my nightmare has just begun. I am being held captive in the Queen’s ship awaiting interrogation. My only possible ally is the princess, but I’m unsure if she is really my friend or a trap set by the Queen to fool me into sharing the secret of my gift. A gift I keep hidden even from myself. It swirls inside my body begging for release, but it is the one thing the Queen can never discover. Will I have the strength to keep the secret? I’ll know the answer soon. If the stories are true about the interrogators, I’ll either be dead or a traitor to my people by morning.

My Thoughts
Balance by Ciara Knight is a fantastic conclusion to an amazing series! The Neumarian Chronicles is a thrilling steampunk adventure. I could not wait to read Balance, and it exceeded my expectations. Such a wonderful read. The action in this series NEVER stops! Ciara has written such a special story through this series. I felt truly connected to the characters, having followed their story since reading Weighted. Ciara has created a world and characters that feel real, raw and emotional. This is a perfect ending to the story. I’m so sad it’s over! I don’t want to let the story go, and I’m sure it’ll stay with me for some time.
