Order of Seven Audible Audiobook – Unabridged

See all formats and editions

Eighteen-year-old Devi Bennett is surrounded by mysteries: her unknown heritage, a recurring dream about an African tribal ceremony, an inexplicable attachment to a certain tree and a psychic ability she'll never understand - unless she finds her biological parents. Things take a shocking turn when she meets Baron, an intense and alluring energy healer who receives prophetic dreams which all seem connected to her. Devi must rely on an empath, a seer, and Baron to help research her roots to discover who she is and what she is capable of. But when Baron's visions lead to an ancient legend which may link to her birthright, Devi learns her gift is more imperative than she thought imaginable. Equal parts suspenseful and sexy, philosophical and adventurous, Order of Seven delivers a story that will leave you questioning everything you thought you knew about the hands that carry fate.

Order of Seven 🐘
This was by far one of my favorite books of 2015. I haven't read anything this unique in a LONGGGGGG time. This book is a gem, as a reader it makes me happy that I can tell how much this author put into writing this. A lot of YA fantasy books recycle plots then add sprinkles and change character names. This book is like the lovechild of the amazing race, my highschool anthropology class and one of my grandparents favorite African movies. Beth Teliho didn't cut any corners. The history, culture and amount of detail she put into the backstory for the characters and their powers was beyond refreshing. This is a great debut and I can't wait to read more of her work in the future.My favorite aspects of this book:1. The romance in this book was perfect. I'm not going to spoil anything but nothing about Devi and Baron felt rushed, unrealistic or cheesy. The way their powers tied into one another's made the relationship even better.2. Nodin and Devi's relationship as siblings was adorable. The way they look out for one another and even irk each others nerve's throughout the book was spot on. I could see moments I've had with my big sister in a lot of their interactions so it made everything extremely relatable.3. The powers in this book are so cool and different. The way dreams and prophecies tie in, the way their powers can enhance someone else's powers, the reason the order of seven exists...... I could go on forever. There are so many unique aspects in this book. The imagery used to describe the powers was so realistic that I had to take a second out of my day to see if I could manipulate energy (I can't)4. Diversity. My family is African so that was the first thing about this book that drew me in. I was like someone is finally getting into African culture and all of the crazy magic/voodoo/spirits/powers that make African culture and beliefs so different. It doesn't stop there, the Order is made up of members from ALL over the world. There will be a character you relate to in some way or form. Beth also throws in some links to archaeological mysteries that will leave any history fiends doing happy dances. She never misses an opportunity to go above and beyond with a detail and it's great to read along and feel like you're also having a quick learning experience.5. With some books the dialogue feels like the author thought of every corny thing teenagers wouldn't say and threw it into the convos but Order of Seven is perfect. Theres enough humor and suspense to keep every reader engaged from start to finish. The ending will leave you staring at the page for a day or two waiting for more words to magically appear.Not only is she a great writer but she is sooooooo nice and laid back. I'm pretty sure I was fangirling in her Twitter mentions like this book was a new Justin Bieber CD when I finished reading and she laughed along with me instead of thinking I was crazy. Anything you can think of this book has probably weaved in flawlessly. Ghosts? You've got it! Animal lover? You've got it! Tree lover? It's in there too! Edge of your seat suspense? Plot twists? Unpredictable plot?Culture and crazy creativity? It's ALL there, so do yourself a favor and read this book! You won't regret it.

5.0 out of 5 stars SEVEN stars for The Order of Seven

I received this novel in exchange for an honest review.

Rich in description, this book takes your imagination on a sensual journey allowing you to see, taste, hear, and FEEL the plot. It's hard to believe this is Beth Teliho's FIRST novel. When I came to the line in the introduction: "But there's another reason we want to explore our roots: our paranormal abilities," I was hooked. I sat leaning over my kindle devouring each enticing word from this talented new writer. Normally a book with such detail would become mundane and boring, but the writing drew me in and didn't let me stop until the very last word, and when I read that word, I sighed because I didn't want it to end.

She gave me history, archaeology, fantasy, romance, suspense, and wonder all wrapped in a beautifully told story that spans across Texas, Oklahoma, Peru, and Africa (with sprinkles of other cultures as well). The intense research that must have gone into this novel along with the real and believable characters kept me hungry for more, and the ending...well, no spoilers.

Devi is a strong lead female character who's still strikingly delicate. Sometimes she is angry and hostile but other times, she shows such endearing empathy. I liked her because she is real and natural, and I found myself cheering in her corner more than once. Plus, she has a little feisty in her. Who doesn't love a girl who says what she thinks sometimes?

Then there's Baron, just another book boyfriend to add to my list. Tall, dark, handsome...and not at all in the cliche way. He's kind and warm but bold and sexy, with tattoos and a beard. Hold on while I wipe up my drool. Oh, and he's basically a superhero...no big deal.

The remaining characters are alive and believable and come to life on the page. As I escaped into this luscious story, I felt like I was one of them.

If it were possible, I would rate this SEVEN GIANT STARS, a great read that spans across multiple genres. One click this. You won't be disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars since I felt like I was missing out on something

Beth Teliho’s Order of Seven is really a fast passed adventure of discovery. The story grips you right from the start and you just want to find out what happens next. The plot is well thought out and the main characters have a sense of believably. For once we don’t have a virgin as the main protagonist – which is refreshing for a female lead protagonists in the YA fantasy fiction genre.
Teliho, wrote this novel in present tense, and not in past tense as I’m usually accustomed to reading. It thus took some time getting used to her voice. It also had the effect that the language did not flow as effortlessly, which sometimes distracted me from the story. On the other hand it put a note of urgency into the reading. I felt almost anxious to get back into the book after paused reading, since I felt like I was missing out on something.
At first, what really annoyed me about the plot was that Devi our main character is un-naturally bound to this tree in her former family house. This novel is told in first person from the point of view of Devi. She never tells us that being bound to the tree is annoying – it is instead something the reader feels, which I need to applaud. It takes a very talented author to evoke that kind of emotional reaction in her readers.
Overall an excellent read. I’d recommend this to anyone who enjoys an epic adventure tale.

5.0 out of 5 stars Gripping Novel for All Adults

I was so excited to have the chance to read an advance copy of this book, and it did not disappoint!

Beth Teliho is written an entirely gripping novel. Her refreshing and surprising slant on paranormal YA fiction is one I have not read before, the descriptions of the young people’s paranormal work are stunningly vivid and original, and the environmental theme is highly appropriate.

The central love story is based on an intense, fantastical, yet believable bond between two engaging characters. However, friendships and familial relationships are also explored (though not in the same depth). I very much appreciated that males and females are equally gifted with neither cast in a savior role for the others’ sake. The author uses suspense well through both sexual tension (appropriately for the age group) and contradictory impressions that leave the reader wondering who is on the “good side” and who is not.

My favorite aspect of this novel, however, is how smoothly and cleverly the author incorporates actual historical and geographical landmarks into the fictional cultures and legends she created. As a person who regularly likes to imagine the people who built, worshipped in, or lived around ancient sites, I was wholly engrossed in the cultural background she developed. I was left with a pleasant uncertainty as to what indeed historical and what was fiction.

I highly recommend this novel.

It is rare in my adult life to read a book more than once. But this is one I will be coming back to over and over again. This book took me places I couldn't have imagined but now can't get out of my head. The writer reveals the characters to you in a way that makes them mysterious yet accessible. I was drawn in to the story of each of the characters. They were so incredibly real to me, the depth and soul of each character seeping into my brain like a close long held friend. But as I became emotionally intertwined with these people the greater story is revealed, little by little. The dark mystery is infused with a connectedness to nature and to the spiritual world, giving the story a warm and inviting vibe even as my heart rate quickened and my palms grew sweaty. I won't spoil the end, except to say that I was left wanting more. I didn't want to give up the characters. And even though the story left me satiated, I was still left greedily wanting more. A beautifully written novel that lacked pretentiousness within it's gorgeous words. I loved it. I read this initially on my Kindle, but immediately purchased the book version knowing that this was one I will revisit and add to my collection of favorites.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book CONSUMED me...
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on April 7, 2015

I began reading, open-minded and hoping I would enjoy it. The first couple of chapters set the scene nicely, but it was the third which hit me like a sucker punch, sumptuous imagery pulling me into the story and getting me hooked. I was a goner, and at 3am, I stopped, reluctantly, wishing I could read all night.

It was delicious – I’m not sure which way around it happened, but as I consumed it, the story consumed me, engulfing me in a warm, robust plot, spiced with excitement, sugared with truly delectable characters (and believe me, they’re so well written you can SEE them…and anyone on the lookout for a book-boyfriend need look no further) and rippled through with a piquancy lent by fear. I had gorged myself, but like every word-addict, I was hungry for more.

Even once it was late-late and I began to slow down, I couldn’t give up. I was compelled to finish the entire, gorgeous bookful of story. Each chapter brought a new flavour to the palate – never giving me time to grow tired of one aspect before popping in a new sensation, or revisiting a delicacy which had been enjoyed before – and I savoured every single sentence as the ending began to show through.

Then just when I thought that Order of Seven and I were done, and I was already lamenting having finished it so quickly, and beginning to wonder how on earth I could find a book which would fill my mind the same way, I turned over the page and read an entrée which sent my heart soaring and made my mind seize with frustration:

Soon to be available in another flavour: the scene is set for a sequel…

This book earned five stars because I couldn't put it down. Every reader has character traits they immediately fall for. I loved the sassiness and wit of the main character. I LOVED the romantic interest. H.A.W.T. In my opinion this book was very well-crafted for the YA genre, with some additional edge that I wish other YA novels contained! I did finish the book feeling like I should have gotten more out of the climax of the plotline. But overall, I am just wanting more! Now.
