The TravelersThe Travelers, a fantasy story of love and travel between realms, as well as the constant struggle between good and evil that always seems to plague humanity. What if, someone from another realm was, at this very moment, standing next to you but you were unable to see them? Could it be absolute that we, here on earth, are the only ones in the universe? Something I have thought about from time to time.
Jaze, the traveler from another realm, an invisible being, had always traveled to Alex over the years watching her from the shadows, sometimes lending assistance and protection, even revenge. He never understood the attraction, the strong pull he had towards Alex
Alex and CiCi were the best of friends – CiCi in fact was the only friend Alex had. Alex always had felt a little different but then her father was a strict one who did not allow her to be a normal teenager, he demanded focus and perfection – what was his motivation?
The day after her eighteenth birthday things began to change for Alex. First her parents told her a lie and left her because it was ‘time’ then Jaze made himself be seen by Alex. Not only that, the shadow people were emerging into Alex’s world in search of her to come home to another realm where she belonged – was it to kill her or control her.
What was her father’s role in the strange things that were beginning to happen to her and around her? Sixteen-year-old Molly, who attended the same school as Alex, dies at the hands of something/somebody felt rather than seen. In fact there had been several young girls to die in this manner. Who was killing the young girls and why, more to the point who would be next?
A fun and adventurous read into the world of the travelers, from the point of view of both Jaze and Alex. Sometimes a little redundant, as each scene was told from both points of view often repeating the same words in the telling, however, as Alex stumbled into her destiny with the help and protection of Jaze, they fell in love.
The things they experienced made this an adventure worth taking as well as giving you something to think about as you hear that loud, unexplained bump in the night or the unexplained creak of a floorboard.
