Truth Changer (Hardcover)

Wow what a great conclusion to a great series! So much action, so much drama, so much angst! And so much brilliance... This story captivated me from book one in it's uniqueness. Firstly, I loved that it was set in Africa, with African and Egyptian beauties, a welcome deviation from the norm. A world so imaginative, I was following every detail with reverence, fully engaging with Imara and Naki, ok, also with Abe and Mali and, yeah, all of them. I thoroughly enjoyed how emotive they all are, they wear their emotions on their sleeves and it translates. The authors captures these emotions so splendidly I felt it all.

As Imara slowly regains what she has lost, thanks to Abe, the events around them have spiraled out of control. There are those who want everyone to be tagged for any offence which opens up a whole lot of abuse from others, even violence. Imara and her friends have to stop this from happening. They also have to stop the Carlotta, who shows her true colours, ok, excuse the pun... she's a scheming so and so who doesn't give a rat's ass about anyone other than herself, not even her own brother. To stop her from gaining complete and irrevocable power. Not so easy... they are thwarted at every turn, they are set upon, they are captured, they are tortured and some even die. Yes, this book was very real, real life events that happen to real people and the emotional rollercoaster has my stomach lurching!

Imara and Abe have really come a long way, their relationship solidifying brilliantly. I loved Naki too, she and Imara's sisterly love shines through and Naki shows some real teeth, love it! My big disappointment was in Siluk, just as I thought, huh, he ain't so bad, what he does and did is not on! I loved the different "voices" of the characters, and goodness are they diverse! And awesome. Ms Moody brought a whole new idea to life, the action and actions of her cast members was extremely well played out, we get propelled from one disaster to the next, we get shown how vulnerable the characters can be, we get to see how their resolve and determination carries them, we get to experience the love they feel for one another and we get to indulge our senses to the maximum. There's a scene near the end that is so beautifully tragic, flowers are placed over the rubble in an area where many lost their lives, transforming it from something ugly to something beautiful and cleansing. Everything about this series is beautiful, yeah, even the ugly is beautiful. It's a series I strongly recommend to all

This book was faster paced, more action, more danger, sadly more casualties. Imara and her friends went from just needing to save some children, to saving a city, to saving the WORLD. Now that Santini is back in the picture, the evil knows no bounds. She seems to have a soft spot for Imara, but does she truly think of her as a daughter, or just wants to manipulate her? Imara has gotten very good at deciphering nonverbal language and picking out tells even without her hila to help her. Her heart has opened and grown and she is a whole new person compared to just months ago. She and Naki are enjoying true sisterhood and both are developing into fuller people. Some devastating losses and betrayals in this book, but Imara earns her "hero" tag. This book was action packed through the end, couldn't put it down!

This was an epic ending to this series. As soon as I finished Healer I went straight into Truth Changer. Each book in the series picks up where the last left off. It kept me captivated from beginning to end.

I love the characters. They have changed and grown so much even though only a short amount of time has passed.

This book is full of twists and turns. Once I started the book I couldn't put it down. Every time you think you know what may happen, something unexpected happens.

I don't think this book could have had a better ending. I can't wait to see what the author comes up with next.
