| Silent World Book 1 |
Mama said monsters will kill you.
My Mama taught me everything she knew right up until the day that monsters killed her and my family, while leaving me and my young cousins alive. The beasts will kill you on sight. Monsters will do far worse.
Yet, when a beast gets the best of me and I’m succumbing to its poison, it’s a group of monsters that save my life. They show me that maybe Mama didn’t know everything and there might be a different narrative to the hostile world around me.
Now these monsters want something from me. Something I’m not sure I’m brave enough to give them.

My Review: 4/5 Stars
I went into this book pretty blind considering it is a spin off from another series by Crea Reitan. This is my first time reading this dystopia monster romance from her and I have to say it was definitely an interesting world! You won’t get lost jumping into this series, I followed it pretty well. I’m sure if I read the other series before it I could see how those lead to this world that took place a hundred years later. In this story we follow Rainer, Keary, Notto, and Drystan. A human and three different types of monsters. Rainer has been on his own for a while with his own animal like sidekick. He has been searching for the pod of monsters responsible for his parents’ death years before with little success. But when he is injured by a monster he is saved by three others. In this world there are definitely different types of monsters. Those who are more sentient versus ones who are more predator. Keary, Notto, and Drystan are very different from one another. And when Keary meets Rainer, his pull to him is instant. He tends to him and isn’t ready to let him go. So him and Notto and Drystan begin to show Rainer the good in monsters while also helping him track down the monsters he is looking for. Add in the idea of mates between them all and you got an interesting monster romance going on. This world wasn’t like anything I’ve read before and I’m curious to see how the series progresses.
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
