The Flight of the Silvers by Daniel Price
5.0
I received this book through the Goodreads First Reads giveaways. Being that it is an uncorrected proof, the book could change between the time of this review and the book's February 2014 release.
I really, really enjoyed this book. The Flight of the Silvers focuses on a group of 6 characters who have all been chosen by the mysterious Pelletiers to survive the end of their world and arrive in a parallel one. These characters realize shortly after a brief orientation to their new world that they now possess a "weirdness," an ability they didn't have before. Some have premonitions, another can affect age, while others utilize a matter called tempis. These six characters, the Silvers, come under attack by people with similar abilities, as well as by the defensive forces of the new world, and must band together to survive and to realize why they were chosen by the Pelletiers.
Price was able to create an entire new universe in this book and really developed the characters well, considering that he had six main characters, along with a number of reoccurring supporting characters. I was immediately sucked into the world he created and found myself thinking about the book constantly during the short periods when I had to put it down. I am hooked. Bring on book two!
