My Review: 4/5 Stars

A new series by these authors and it is a very promising start! An interdimensional invasion ten years earlier sparked not only breaches opening where monsters and valuable resources await, but igniting abilities in humans. Ada is a Talent. And hers leads her to being in breaches more often than not. But one her own with two kids and bills to pay, she’ll take the risk. But this latest mission does not go to plan. Resulting in a lot of dead bodies and Ada being abandoned in a labyrinth of alien caves trying to survive and get back to her kids. Her only companion is a dog named Bear. Together, they face quite a lot of different things, changing themselves in the process, and learning way more about breaches and what is out there. Like any new series, you have a lot to learn when it starts off. And I’ll admit to took me a minute to figure out this new world and get into the story. But once I was in, I was hooked. This is the beginning of what I think is going to be a really great series. I loved our heroine, Ada! She was so strong and determined and refused to give up without a fight. We have so much left to explore and I can’t wait to see where this series takes us!
