Review

"I sometimes struggle to get into storylines of books but had no problem at all with this book! I was truly grabbed from the first page of the first book and have been glued to my kindle since, even stopping up till ridiculous times finish numerous chapters after being so engrossed! It's a fab storyline with some amazing characters and numerous interesting twists keeping the reader engaged!" Georgina Thomas

"I couldn't put it down. I ended up staying awake all night just to finish it. I definitely recommend it, and can't wait for the next one!" Katherine Panowicz

About the Author

Born in a small town, J.Armitage longed for adventure and travel. Age 20 she moved to Dublin, then to San Diego, Then Sydney and back to California where she did a brief stint working at Universal studios being a minder to Sponge Bob. Once back in Britain she got married, had babies and decided to write about the adventure she was now missing out on. She works full time, is a single mum to three kids and is currently pregnant with a surrogate baby. She has skydived twice (and survived), climbed Kilimanjaro and hiked to the bottom of the Grand Canyon. She has also worked as a professional clown and banana picker amongst other jobs. Somehow she finds time to write. Her first novel, Endless Winter, is the first of the four part Guardians of The Light series and book 2 is currently underway.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

J.A lives in a total fantasy world (because reality is boring right?) When she’s not writing all the crazy fun in her head, she can be found eating cake, designing pretty pictures and hanging upside down from the tallest climbing frame in the local playground while her children look on in embarrassment. She’s travelled the world working as everything from a banana picker in Australia to a Pantomime clown, has climbed to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro and the bottom of the Grand Canyon and once gave birth to a surrogate baby for a friend of hers.

She spends way too much time gossiping on facebook and if you want to be part of her Reading Army, where you’ll get lots of freebies, exclusive sneak peeks and super secret sales, join up here

This is a roller coaster ride of a story starting off with the lead locked into a dark room and then expanding in a somewhat confusing fashion which then jells into a pretty powerful story. Anais and Aethalu are interesting characters and the author does a good job of getting the reader an explanation of what the Guardians of Ligjt are all about without needing to go into lecture mode. Instead we get a well written tale that has real impact - and leaves me salivating for the next book.

Definitely recommended.

In a potion. Created to cure ailments over 600 years ago... And then the plague hit and a potion they swore never to use became their life saver. Great storyline. Great twists and turns. I look forward to reading more in this series.

3.0 out of 5 stars This book probably had the best starting chapter.
Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2017

This book was set in England.

The start alone already had my heart racing. Like Anais confused, shocked and disoriented, I too felt like I was kidnapped and imprisoned in that room with her. It was a very stupefying start of a very interesting story. I liked how the author had me caught me unaware, right in the first chapter. Not knowing where the story will take me but none the less, believing that this should lead to more amazing revelations that will blow me away.

As I said, I could not make out what the story was about. And I say this as a compliment. Like Anais I had to wait until the facts and truth were revealed. I liked how the history of the Guardians of the Light came to be. It was very clever. This was a very well-written story that had a very believable background spun from a historical event.

I really had fun reading the story. It felt like I was right there with the characters freezing from the cold weather and liking the feel of snow. My only observations what that for one that was set in England and with all the other characters supposed to be English, I did not hear the accent or the common English expressions and words used in the story. It felt like all the conversations were of Americans, only they are in Britain instead of US soil. I wanted to hear the authentic English tongue. But other than that, it was all good. The descriptions and narrations were really detailed. I can easily picture out the scenes in this book.

I give the book 3/5 paintings of London. The feel of the English countryside was there but I just wished I could also hear the conversations in the British tongue. I did enjoy the story and I am looking forward to reading the next one. Hopefully, if it would still be set in England, I hope it would sound more English than American. This book probably had the best starting chapter. It stunned me and it took a while for me to recover from the shock.

It really was the most awful feeling, and the worst part is, people keep telling you to get over it as if you are suffering no more than a common cold.

2.0 out of 5 stars Slow Start, Over Detailed And Anticlimactic Ending
Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2016
Verified Purchase
** spoiler alert ** At first it was a little hard to follow. Anais is in a dark room and can't figure out how to turn on the light, but she is a great puzzle solver and couldn't figure out to look in the middle of the room for a cord to turn on a light that way. Anais talks to Aethalu about her parents and she breaks down as if she didn't know what happened to her parents and later in the book knew more than Anais.

For growing up over 500 years, whether they aged or not, no one seemed to be older than the age they were when they drank the elixir. I see that there is several books after this one and it would have been nice to know what happen to Jago's face, if that was even Jago. Though they didn't finish the story, the book ended, closing some small plots and that is always nice.

I will not be reading the other installments as it was hard for me to read through this. The chase actually had me hoping, but failed to delivered and ended very anticlimactic. Unfortunately, the concept was good, I just think it wasn't delivered to the standard I would have liked.

Absolutely fantastic! The way the author uses words to describe things in the beginning of the story where the character is in the dark and can not see is so amazing. It engages all of your senses and you can literally visualize yourself in that pitch black room. Then the relationship that is forged and the friendships that are made are developed so spectacularly every twist and turn in the plot is just brilliantly written and developed from start to finish. I can not wait to read the next book in the series

This book wasn't at all what I expected but I still couldn't put it down. This story has an intricate plot twisting between romance and adventure. Anais is made an orphan at age 18 when her parents are killed in a tragic car accident, as if that wasn't enough she's kidnapped but a group of immortals and held for who knows what reason. She is put in dangerous situations, asked to do the unthinkable, and falls in love for the first time.

join in the riddle of who Jago is and what he truly wants. Can anais help he immortal to save the world or will we all perish to the Unknown

ok so i got this book on a whim because it was free.
i picked it and found it really hard to put down. i think i eventually put it down at 4am reluctantly. i finished it tonight. i found myself majorly shipping the main two characters but chapter 5. i didn't know it would include a lbgt character but when they eventually got together i was so happy and I'm so glad you didn't make a big deal out of a gay character like some authors. i loved all the characters and the story line and the twists in it. amazing work. i highly recommend!

If my wife asks me what I am reading in bed, I shall tell her it is 'David Copperfield' ... But she is also nearly seventy ! ... KK

Couldn't put it down despite being ill whilst reading it! A great storyline, believable characters and enough twists in the story to keep readers interested without getting confused. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a bit too strenuous read, but particularly to older teenagers and young adults.
