This is a really fun meme!

My 56

Humans are like bees to the supernatural population – an important factor for survival. Similar to the human attitude toward bees, the death of an individual human is of no consequence, but the threat of extinction of the entire race is another matter.

~~~

Synopsis

Ever since Bloody Fall, humans have lived in fear.

Even though the apparently senseless massacres have ended, President Elizabeth Ryan’s administration has been under a cloud of disapproval for failing to bring the terrorists to justice.

She braces herself as a new spate of carnage is unleashed.

Cordelia and Faustine are recruited back into action as the supernatural agencies go on high alert. Has their nemesis re-emerged?

~~~

I’ll be reviewing this for the tour in April. I’ve just started it and I’m hooked already.

I didn’t know it was the third book in the Bonfire Chronicles Series.

I’m enjoying this one so much I plan to go grab the first two books too.

    Awesome quote, and very timely!

    I’m so intrigued… the threat of extinction… cool!
    Happy weekend!

  5. I’ve heard humans compared to many things, but never bees! This sounds like an interesting book with a unique twist.
    My Friday post features GRACIANNA.

  6. Sam says:

    It must be hard to read the conclusion first. What a tribute to the author that you’re enjoying it so much. Thanks for visiting my Friday 56 and happy reading!

  7. Erin @ The Hardcover Lover says:

    I’ve never heard of this book until now, but that’s an interesting metaphor. It actually makes a lot of sense when you look at just one death compared to millions.

  8. Ooh, creepy excerpt! LOL Thanks for sharing…and for visiting my blog.

  9. Lauren says:

    This sounds really interesting and the cover is beautiful! I look forward to hearing more about series

  10. How much fun! I’ve never been able to start a series in the middle before. Haha.

      I do it a lot. Then I grab the other books. I’m reading a series right now where I strted with the third book, then the fifth, and now the 8th. LOL

  11. Awesome cover art and great snippet. I think the threat of extinction is quite sobering and the comparison of us to busy bee workers… well, I can picture that. Glad you’re enjoying this one. Look forward to your review.
