Return: The Evolution Trilogy
by Vanessa Wester
In this final book of the trilogy, Caitlin has to adapt to her change, so Steven takes her back to the colony.
Overall, the trilogy is well thought out, well laid out. Ms. Wester does a good job with the "don't call me a vampire" theme and the struggles with the colony to overcome homicidal tendencies, giving them a viable option to murder. I liked the concept, the premise, and overall, the characterizations. I particularly liked the sense of setting, the colony in the Amazon was smartly described. With that being said, I don't want to harp on this author's writing style, which was difficult for me in a lot of places, but it is worth noting.
I found the conflict between Caitlin and Steven to be understandable and believable. As impatient as I got with her at times, the foundation for the changes that come with being made superhuman validated some of her mood swings. As a reader, I think the triplet plot line didn't add anything, except as a way to keep Steven and Caitlin apart, and without it, I would have been happy to see a HEA ending rather than the promise of one.
Well plotted, well researched. A fresh take on vampires.
