was uick to comment “My can it be true One day youre calling me a filthy demon and next youre having sleepover with an Underworlder” “What can I say he was prettier than you” Rayne and ChaseWhat a read Exiled by Mathew Merrick was a fantasy action novel at its best If youre looking for an awesome action paranormal novel with a male main character then look no further Exiled will have you up late at night needing to know what Chase was going to get himself in and out of nextChase is a part of the Circle a group of hunters who have elemental powers to help them save the innocent from demons Today is Chasesth birthday today he is supposed to finally receive his elemental power but when at the ceremonyno elemental power comes In return his powerful father a fire elemental has his own son Chase and Tessa Chases mother exiled from the circleAlmost three years later and Chase still relives that day every day As if that wasnt bad enough even though he has been exiled and has no elemental power he is still regularly attacked by demons But one day everything changes he meets Rayne a beautifully fierce girl that is part demon and hunter according to what the circle taught him Rayne shouldnt even existafter meeting Rayne Chase is learning that there is much going on in the Circle then he could ever imagineWhat a ride Exiled was one of the best fantasy novels I have ever read it had everything you want when looking for a great paranormal read there were hunters demons vampires werecats goblins trolls giants I think you get my point This novel completely satisfied my paranormal needs the part I especially loved about the fantasy beings was how the hunters worked most books that have hunters means they are just really strong and good fighters But in Exiled hunters had magical powers each hunter had an element they could use air fire water or earth Scenes that involved hunters using such awesome powers were my favorite parts throughout the bookBesides the fantasy aspect of Exiled I also enjoyed the action throughout it I dont normally get to into action scenes in books but with Exiled I was completely spellbound The action scenes were so intense with lots of blood and so well written I normally cant picture battlefights in my head very good but with every one of Matthew Merricks action scenes I pictured it picture perfect clear in my mind it was incredible More or so I guess that just means I completely loved the author Matthew Merricks writing even outside of battle scenes each page flowed perfectly and I was able to easily imagine what was going onLast but not least the characters The variety of characters was wonderful There were so many different characters that Chase runs into throughout Exiled and each and every one of them was easy to remember No one was really all that similar each character had a distinctive personality My favorite hands down though were Chase Rayne and Willy And each one of them is different Chase is insanely strong headed Rayne is flat out fierce and Willy is the guy always scared and stuttering Their each so different yet I loved every one of themOverall Exiled is not a book any YA fantasyparanormal readers want to miss This book had me going crazy over what Chase was going to get him and his friends into next and I cannot wait to see where bookShift will take him next I can only hope all the characters I have come to love will make it out of bookalive I put off reading this book for a long time and Im not sure why I asked Matt if there was any sexy times in it and he said not really That may have had something to do with it But if hed told me that there was so much chemistry between Chase and Rayna I might have checked it out faster Because it kind of had the potential to stroll into bow chica wow wow territory and probably would have if they hadnt all been so busy fighting to survive Also Merrick what are you doing wasting all that potential sexual chemistry And have you ever considered writing romancesExiled is like a diamond in the rough I see so much of Merricks potential as an author I think given time attention and hardwork his books are going to be pretty damn great Exiled itself was a difficult book to me to rate The raw material itself was pretty excellent There was certainly plenty to appreciate about the novel and I had a great deal of enjoyment while reading it This was Merricks first novel though so there are always going to be things that an author can learn and improve on When I said diamond in the rough I meant it I got the sense throughout reading it that it really needed an experienced editor to cut and polish it to help Merrick bring out the best parts and chip off the parts that were cumbersome or unnecessary In case you cant tell thats Aladdin and thats someone explaining the process of how they perfected his look Isnt this like the most appropriate GIF for a review ever The intro needed to be a little smoother and the back end of the story contained some unnecessary story telling that I could see was probably setting up for the next novel but that really punched the pacing in the gut and detracted from the overall plotThe characters were a big positive for this book Chase was endearing in that way that little brothers are Overly confident and just adorable enough to pull it off Rayna was a great counter balance providing maturity and a gravity that Chase could aspire to Marcus played the ever patient and ever ignored father figure while Chases mum gave the novel a sweet grounding human touch Then of course theres Vincent if you want a mature romantic leadAnd whilst I am eager to follow up on the lives and adventures of Chase and crew I cant help but want to take a red pen to this book I enjoyed it so much but feel like its potential was cut short like a world class athlete with no one to train it Merrick made a couple of astounding female characters which Id like to see him do of The novel does feel a little unbalanced and overpopulated with powerful men in leadershipdestiny roles I feel like theyre especially necessary to balance out the damsel in distress heavy plot toward the second half of the bookYoure probably going to like this book if youre into a younger version of The Dresden Files with a main protagonist who is almost as exasperating Its certainly not a perfect novel but also not without meritUltimately I want to see from Merrick This was a really hard book to rate I feel like it deserved based on my enjoyment but the issues with the plotting and pacing tripped me up I think he has the signs of an excellent story teller though and Im eager to read the next in the series ShiftThis review can also be found on my blog Cuddlebuggery Book Blog Posted on K Bookshttpk booksxoblogspotcomWhen I got this book sent to me for review I was really excited to start it I was really looking forward to reading it and seeing what would happen I really loved itI think this is a book that anyone can enjoy no matter what age they are It has something for everyone in it Vampires Witches Demons Warlocks you name it this book has itChase is a demon hunter people who are brought up to protect humans from the demons in the world At fifteen they go through a ritual to find their elemental power When Chase doesn't show any elemental magic he and his mother are exiled to live among humans and try to survive among demons Little does he know that his exile is the best blessing he could get as the Circle are corrupted and he was saved from the biggest evil of them all his fatherI really loved this book it was action packed and there were times when I could hardly breathe and no way that I could stop reading Many times in the book I got the feeling that sometimes you get when watching a movie you can't look at the screen but you can't stop watching at the same time Close to the end of the book this was what I was like so many things were going wrong I couldn't bare to read on because I didn't want anything else to go wrong but at the same time I couldn't possibly stop reading as I just needed to find out what was going to happen I really loved the characters in this book Chase was just such an amazing lead character In most books I read the lead character is female so I wasn't sure how I would relate to the character but I did I loved Chase he's just amazing and so strong I loved how loyal he is to his mother and would do anything to protect her and how he soon becomes the same to RaynaI really loved Rayna I just wanted to hug her and tell her everything would be okay She has been through so much and I really admire how strong she isThe ending of the book was just amazing I loved how you got closure for things that happened in this first book but also left you needing the next one as well I was so sad and cried a little at the ending and I love when books make me cry That to me is a sign of a great author if their words can wield so much emotion in you then they are amazing M R Merrick is definitely an amazing author and I can't wait to see what happens next in this seriesA great start to a series and I will definitely be following it right the way through until the end MR Merrick takes YA paranormal to a whole new level with his debut novel Exiled where we're taken on an enthralling action adventure filled with creatures from demons to trolls alongside our strong determined protagonist ChaseA heartbreaking and powerful start we're immediately introduced to our dear Chase when we're taken to his childhood seeing him exiled from the Circle for having no elemental magic Fast forward a few years we meet a teenager who has matured beyond his years by having to keep himself and his mother alive while constantly on the lookout for demons killing them when necessary We do see that he still has some boyish innocence however when he meets the sexy smart and witty Rayna Both of them are enticing easily likeable characters but together they're infinitely entertaining The amusing banter between them enlivens the story giving us a great balance of lightheartedness inside this dark tale These are not the only people we get to know and love in this novel It holds a fantastic cast of secondary characters that are just as enchanting along with villains that are ruthless From the unfortunate trolls we meet along the way to Willy the always delightful demon we've got vivid personalities that clearly sets them apart giving them important supporting roles that adds uite a bit charm to the storyIt's hard to pinpoint which genre I would consider this Urban Fantasy would be my pick It's a fast paced adventure with plenty of fantasy and paranormal elements a touch of romance and non stop action Surprisingly it all fits incredibly well I'm not a big fan of fantasy especially they mostly overwhelm me with the endless hierarchies and politic so I was relieved this was not the case with Exiled I was kept intrigued by the inner workings of the demons and hunters Their conspiracies and prophecies had me engrossed impressing me with twists I never expected Its plot is overall immensely creative giving us a story that is uniue with an ending that will leave you dying for Even though I'm hesitant to get into fantasy I'm glad that I finally caved to all the threats rave reviews and gave Exiled a try Intense and high in action you should find yourself easily immersed in MR Merrick's imaginative world It has a whole hell of a lot to offer for any and all reading preferences For of my reviews visit my blog at Xpresso Reads I've had a difficult time trying to write a review for this bookI find it really weird that the author has given himself astar reviewIt makes me uncomfortable and makes me feel like the author is stalking his review page Perhaps this is why there hasn't been much descent toward the book People are afraid to get reamed out for a negative review which has been happening a lot lately on goodreadsI have no idea how this book hasout ofWhen I see a book with this high of a review rating I expect something extraordinary and this

book is far from extraordinaryMy issuesThis book was very predictable So predictable that I feel the characters were extremely moronic to not have figured everything out sooner I managed to figure it out after the first hint was given and since we're experiencing everything from Chase's viewpoint I have no idea why he couldn't figure it out soonerThere were a ton of misspellings and grammatical errors I found myself playing a game of Where's Waldo The Next Grammatical Error doesn't uite have the same ring as Waldo but whateverI felt like the antagonist in this book Chase's dad was way over donelike a characterature of an evil villain Chase's father could have still been a dick still been evil without going so far overboard Instead of hating him I found myself rolling my eyes every time Chase had a flashbackview spoilerThe fact that Chase starts out with no elemental powers in the beginning of the storythe reason why he is exiled Then all of a sudden develops not one but two powers is so friggin' cliché so expected that I literally had a countdown in my head of when we would discover his super human capabilities I'm currently taking bets on whether or not there will a love triangle in later installments hide spoiler.
