Welcome to The Friday 56 hosted by Freda’s Voice.
This is a really fun meme!
The only rules are to grab a book (any book), turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader and find a sentence or a few (no spoilers) that grabs you and post it.
A Hidden Element
The Element Trilogy #2
My 56
“Adrian was chosen to lead our mission here by their laws and grow our people into a new world of our own design to ensure the strongest gene pool.”
“And slowly wipe out all humans?”
“Yes.”
“What if we go out in the world in peace and let whatever happens…happen?”

Synopsis
Evil lurks within…
When Caleb Madroc is used against his will as part of his father’s plan to breed a secret alien community and infiltrate society with their unique powers, he vows to save his oppressed people and the two children kept from him.
Seven years later, Laura and Ben Fieldstone’s son is abducted, and they are forced to trust a madman’s son who puts his life on the line to save them all. The enemy’s desire to own them—or destroy them—leads to a survival showdown.
Laura and Ben must risk everything to defeat a new nemesis that wants to rule the world with their son, and Caleb may be their only hope—if he survives. But must he sacrifice what he most desires to do so?

I’ve read the first book, A Human Element. It was fantastic and I’ve been waiting a while for A Hidden Element.
I can say it was worth the wait and I’m looking forward to sharing my thoughts with you soon.

Thanks so much for visiting fuonlyknew.
Leave your link and I’ll drop by your 56!
It sounds intense, and I’m trying to figure out why the book cover suddenly reminded me of Star Wars’ Darth Sidious!? Feels very mystical to say the least 🙂
Here’s mine:

Darth Sidious? Maybe because it does look like him. LOL I couldn’t put my finger on who but you nailed it!
I LOVE this series! There is good and bad in everyone, whether they be humans or aliens.

Are you reading it? It’s wild!
I’ve read them both and have my review almost read for Book I and working on Book II. Wild is putting it mildly. ^_^

I’ve never heard of this series, but what a nice cover. Enjoy!
I love the cover too. If you read the book, you’ll see how well it compliments it.
I haven’t come across this one before and it isn’t my usual genre but it definitely sounds interesting. The conversation in the 56 is intriguing. Hope you’re enjoying it!
The whole coversation was out there! This is such a good book.
I keep seeing this series around; it looks interesting.
I’m glad to hear it’s being noticed. Donna is a wonderful writer.
Sounds like the author has created a frightening world. Your Friday 56 selection makes me wonder who’s talking and how they could be so matter-of-fact about wiping out all humans!
Thank you for leaving a comment on my post today.

Obviously they aren’t human. LOL They sure don’t think like we do.
It’s been a long time since I’ve read sci-fi/fantasy. This sounds good.
It is good Lisa. I don’t read a lot of science fiction, but this is a mixed genre and the writing is excellent.
Intriguing, and normally sci-fi doesn’t turn me on…
Happy weekend!
I was telling Lisa, it’s a mixed blend of genre. I love character driven novels and there are some powerful ones in this book.
It’s always interesting to read how a different civilization responds to another. Happy reading and have a lovely weekend.
I know. I love reading about the dynamics.
Wipe out humans he say? Oh. That’s not fun. Anyway, thanks for dropping by my blog ♥

Scary, isn’t it. And so blase about it.
Sounds like an interesting read. Thanks for sharing it.
It’s very intersting Catherine. I love the writing.
Oh this looks like a good dystopian! Thanks for stopping by my Friday post! 🙂
