Elysium Elysium Chronicles Book 1 eBook Georgia Cline
This story features a great concept and a compelling protagonist. Unfortunately the setup did not lead to a satisfying conclusion. Sometime after the middle of the story, the narrative falters. Until that point, the author held my interest with an interesting premise and writing that sets a dark, threatening mood. Throughout, one reads terrifically descriptive passages, and for me, this all climaxed when we enter the city of Elysium. The author not only demonstrates a lively imagination, but manages through description to imprint her vision in the reader's mind. Yet, after that wonderful passage, I started asking what was happening. I couldn't come up with a concrete answer till the end, after plowing through a lot of stuff that amounted to little by way of story or character development. Well, there is some character development, but it feels at times either rushed or superficial. On the plus side, the author writes fairly well. Given this is her debut novel and how many years of writing still lie ahead of her, I am sure her future work will blossom into its fullest potential.Product details

Elysium Elysium Chronicles Book 1 eBook Georgia Cline Reviews
Elysium is a fast-paced dystopian novel with a sci-fi feel. Excellent character development, and adequate story-world building, but unfortunately lacks originality.
Elysium is an chilling read. The characterization and plot keep the pages turning. It has everything on the menu that goes in a dystopian plot. If you’re up for dystopian, then this book is for you. I rate this book a five-star read.
I received this book to give an honest review.
This book was a bit different than I expected it to be and for me it was hard to determine if the book was set in the present or in the future. We have the plague which has taken the life of people. The only cure seems to be the blood of “special” people, now how these people are special I am not quite sure really. Fast forward a few years, Eliza has seen her mother die in front of her and now out of no where she is being hunted. For me I didn’t truly understand why the men in black suits waited so long to take Eliza. But I could over look that and just get into the story. It seems as soon as Eliza is kidnapped from her home she ends up in a prison that seems colder than you can imagine, of course she isn’t in there long as she ends up on the run and getting help from people she has never meet before.
Some how people that are “special” like Eliza have been looking for her and want to keep her safe so they bring her to this place they call Elysium. The way you get there seem surreal, which had me thinking could this be set into the future. Elysium is like no other place on Earth, it is beautiful and very different. But Eliza doesn’t get the welcome wagon like you would think, and there is a true reason for it. Eliza also learns things about her life that she never knew before, especially something really big.
This is a great start to a series, but at times I felt as though the book was rushed, and that there were questions with no answers. The feelings that Eliza gets for one of the officers of Elysium felt off and I am thinking that it could be because Eliza doesn’t seem like an adult more like a teenager maybe? Though when she started talking in front of the council she seemed like an adult.
I do want more character build up of Eliza, and I would like to get answers on to how the “special’ people became. Seeing as how this is book one, I do hope book two is a bit more developed with the characters and action scenes.
The book was consistently well paced, and very enjoyable to read.
My only complaint is that there were some loose ends not yet tied up, but then I saw that a sequel is coming, so now I'm excited for it. D
