The Tracer (Rifters Book 4) Kindle Edition

If you have read the first 3 books and are now ready to read book 4. If you have read none of the previous books these are not stand alone books. So at that point I will give no spoilers. I will say these are fast reads, they keep you turning pages and they have lots of action.

Read and enjoy.

Love this paranormal series - and greatly enjoyed this newest addition to it. Unexpected twists and turns and reacquainting with old friends. Love the evolution of the characters from one book to the next. Drew me in from the beginning - can't wait for number 5

Another rifter book down and leaving you hanging for more. Absolutely a wonderful read and so hard to put down.

I loved this series it was very entertaining and exciting loved how brother and sisters worked together and how there great etc. grandfathers came in to play along

This is the fourth book in the Rifter series and the adventure continues introducing a few more life forms to earth. Initially no one is certain if they are friendly or malicious. Most of the Rifters believe they are but one life form first of all and not friendly because of the large amount of brutal cattle mutilations in all nearby counties shortly after the rift opens. All of the major characters involved including Earl have had disturbing dreams or visions...all involve moths with a death head face on their wings and all involve blood and death but different scenarios for different people. As the plot evolves we discover the what, where , who, why and when. Suffice to say the visions are terrifying but are they the future ... or just a possible future?

Daelin has spent the nine months following the rift closure healing and developing combat skills with the staff containing the essence of the Governor spy Albin and the conciousness of Sabina who is permanently merged with the alien life form. What I wonder about is why both Daelin and her brother Cobra were not getting Rifter instruction at least the theory during the long interval the rift was closed. It is much easier to put theory into practice once committed to memory and applied to real time practice instead of trying to both cold at the same time. This is a failure of leadership by Walt who is now the leader of the Rifters since Sabina's death. The same thing bothers me about Earl's reluctance to fully commit to raising a competent army and Dante's failure to fully convince Earl of the coming attack that will end up destroying the world as we know it with the coming of the Governor Invasion. Dante has the skill and power being the Governor that created the means of the void which allows travel in the Rift between the 42 known universes and to alter his appearence at will, make people forget specific events etc but he can not convince help and motivate Earl to believe the total anhililation of human kind is coming! Then when the rift is about to open again Dante comes waltzing in and wonders why Earl is not ready? Perplexing because being of that species he should have been giving Earl all the intelligence he can regarding the Governors capabilities, strengths and hopefully weaknesses and helping to stratigize on how to effectively defeat them. How do you combat and kill beings that have supperior intelligence, technology and firepower? Any military person with a modecum of intelligence can explain the complexities, logistics and vast amounts of money it takes to raise, clothe, feed, equip, train, move and pay an army...so in nine months Earl the General has not addressed any of this and the Rift is about to open!!! He has to "Run & Gun" on the fly??? I guess I perhaps over think things and have to remember this is after all a story but I am a little disappointed in these major miscalculations of basic common sense.

Readers take heart because once you mentally get around this part of the obstacle course things get better and very much more exciting! To wet your appitite... Daelin gets very interested in Detective Browder Washbrook who suddenly appears in the forest as Daelin is hot on the trail of the Moths in her initial training with Francine as a tracer and rushes off into the bush before Daelin can stop him and both find themselves trapped on another world with seven moons!!! At the same time on earth Earl has to become the thief he swore he would never become again...all for the means to raise an army and attempt to save the earths people from death and destruction. What we have now is a battle on two fronts...on two separate worlds involving not one but two different alien species at the same time with exacting conditions to achieve sucess or all is lost!!! To find out this and much, much more you need to get the series and read for yourself!!! I gave this book 4 stars and a thumbs up because of what happened after the Rift opened and toned down my objections ...before it opened. Looking forward to the next book in the series.
