5.0 out of 5 stars Read this after HUNTED, and while waiting for Book 2... January 4, 2012

By G. Donald Cribbs

Format:Kindle Edition

Having read HUNTED, I was desperate for more of Caitlyn and Alex and the futuristic world where PARAS are on the run from the government. Anyone with paranormal abilities are ruthlessly hunted down and treated like animals, imprisoned and even tortured. Cheryl Rainfield created a captivating world you won't soon leave, even months later, I still think back to Caitlyn and her mother hiding from being discovered by the PARAtroopers.

If you're like me, you're hungering for more while the author finishes book 2 in the series, and this is a great read, just as wonderful as the full novel. If you're wondering what might make a "normal" decide to hate and target a PARA, read about Becca and find out through her backstory what leads her to lash out at someone with paranormal powers, like Caitlyn's telepathy.

A great read! More, please, Cheryl!

4.0 out of 5 stars Addicting. February 4, 2012

I got to read a preview of Hunted last night, so when I found this short story that ties in with the novel I was about ready to explode with excitement. I have literally grabbed several of my friends and told them they had to download this kindle edition and read it. It's a short little read but it fills you with angst and excitement from the get go.

I now have a greater understanding as to what and how a Para works, how their sparks are felt, and it's set my imagination to rolling. I can already see Caitlyn being someone I want to see in many different books, series. I cannot wait because this is so amazing to see it on the big screen as a movie. Ala the Minority report. But much more fantastic.

This is seriously one of the best short stories I've read in a very long time. You will not be disappointed with the download.

3.0 out of 5 stars It's Well Written Even if It's SHORT! April 17, 2013

A VERY Short story. Not much to say. Reads like a deleted scene from Hunted.

You might enjoy this if you enjoyed Hunted. OR if you are just thinking about reading Hunted, you might want to pick this up. I was able to get the kindle edition from Amazon for FREE and it included the first six pages of hunted.

My fantasy books often hold hope that I need, and feel others might need, too, while reflecting on forms of oppression or pain, while my realistic fiction is gritty, intense, and emotional. All of my books have fragments of the abuse I experienced. I write about some of the harsh things teens go through...things that I think shouldn't be hidden. But I also write about healing, hope, and love, and finding courage and strength.
