Evermore
Emily Chambers Spirit Medium Book 3
By C. J. Archer
Number of Pages: 216
When ghosts begin to disappear from the Otherworld, Emily Chambers and her friends must hunt down those responsible before every last spirit, including Jacob Beaufort, is destroyed and Emily’s livelihood along with them. But there is one thing stopping them – Jacob’s killer.
Weakened and fading fast, the ghost of Jacob Beaufort is determined to save Emily from a bleak and uncertain future. With her family facing financial ruin and the Otherworld in chaos, he knows her only hope is to wed Theo.
As lives and afterlives hang in the balance, Emily is forced to make the ultimate sacrifice, or lose everything she loves.
Review:
This series, overall, was a bit of a disappointment. I had gotten used to Archer’s style in The Ministry of Curiosities series, and I quite adore that line of books. This one, I felt that lacked a special spark, and the foreshadowing was too obvious. Most of what is supposed to be a shocking secret revealed are things I had gathered by the first or second book, and was waiting for Emily to figure it out or for it to be made known. What I did like, was Theo. His attitude and actions seem like the very thing a girl in Emily’s position would see and experience with a suitor.
I would give the series as a whole four stars out of five. I enjoyed them as a quick pulp fiction read. While the premise was quite original and well done, I appreciate the growth and strength in writing that Archer shows in her later works, namely The Ministry of Curiosities.
Author Biography: (From Amazon)
C.J. Archer has loved history and books for as long as she can remember and feels fortunate that she found a way to combine the two. She has at various times worked as a librarian, IT support person and technical writer but in her heart has always been a fiction writer. While she has written historical romance in the past, she now writes exclusively in the historical fantasy genre (with a large dose of romance). She has several series which occur in the same Victorian-era “world”, one after the other. Each series can be read alone, but it’s more fun to start at the beginning with THE EMILY CHAMBERS SPIRIT MEDIUM TRILOGY. Follow that up with all 9 FREAK HOUSE books, then the MINISTRY OF CURIOSITIES series. GLASS AND STEELE, her newest series, is set in an entirely different alternate Victorian London.
