Book Blurb:
All Grace Archer wants is to graduate from high school and get on with her life. But the Gods of Fate have other ideas. Attacked at graduation by a mysterious woman with gruesome henchmen, Grace is lucky to escape with her life. Rescued by a Fae warrior named Chris and her Aunt Phoenix, Grace learns that her mother was the Greek Goddess Pandora. Now Grace must protect her mother’s urn from the crazed demi-goddess Lilith, who is determined to unleash its horrors on an unsuspecting Earth. As if her blood legacy is not bizarre enough, Grace begins to develop frightening powers that threaten to destroy her from the inside out. Can Grace find the strength to defeat Lilith? Can she learn to control her powers before she loses her mind?
My Thoughts
Grace is just your normal senior hoping to get on with her life after graduation and see discover new things and places. But unfortunately for Grace life never asked her what she wanted. Now on what is supposed to be a milestone in a young person’s life is soon turned into a nightmare. She is attacked at her graduation ceremony by a strange woman and hideous minions.
Lucky for her, Grace is saved by a mysterious warrior, Chris and her aunt Phoenix. Chris and Phoenix have lots of explaining to do. On the road Grace discovers she is something beyond ordinary and her life is forever changed once she discovered the truth.
Foresight is a such thrill ride. From the very beginning the author enchants her readers. The nonstop action, suspense mixed in with the Greek Mythology are sure to win over readers of all ages, young and old.
Grace comes over a bit as a brat but as the story progresses, I was happy to see her grow and accept the new role in her life. Not to mention the way Grace fights to overcome the challenges she now faces and she discovers her inner strength not only from the powers which are revealed through the story.
I loved the mini romance that took place between Grace and Chris. I don’t know what Ms. Ficklin has in store next for these two but I love drama. and I can’t help but wonder what consequences Grace and Chris will have to deal with in the upcoming saga of The Gods of Fate.
I give Foresight a rating of 5 out of 5 Bookies.

About Susi
Susi is a geeky vegetarian from Gemany. She just finished university and now works as a civil engineer in steel construction. Besides her reading addiction she also knits like a maniac while listening to audiobooks. Susi also blogs at the Secret HEA Society.
That sounds like an awesome book!
Reminds me a LOT of the Percy Jackson series, but slightly darker, I think.
I haven't heard of this one, thanks for review!
