Editorial Reviews

Paromantasy Blog - Evelyn Amaro
A haunting, heart-wrenching, action-packed emotional roller coaster of a read that will leave an impression on you long after you finish the book. To say that I love this book or this series would be an understatement. Traci Slatton has done an impeccable job with what I thought would be an impossible hurdle for her two main characters to overcome after the ending of Fallen. Not only did she do the impossible, but she made me love the characters and the new additions to the book even more....

    Mesmerizing

    I waited anxiously for months for this book to come out. It was well worth the wait, and then some! Emma is such a strong character ,who will do whatever it takes to rescue her daughter from the raiders who grabbed her. And as much as I wanted her and Arthur to reunite, I also have affection for her rediscovered husband Hayward who loves her and their children and proves it by going into Alexei's camp to find Beth.
    There are lots of old friends from the first book, Fallen, and many new ones in this book that have their odd quirks and, in some instances, unusual powers that developed in the ' after'. And of course there are the mineral eating mists which are evolving and seem to be able to think.....
    The twists and turns abound,and after devouring this book and reaching the cliffhanger ending, I have to ask Traci L.Slatton,"When will the next one be out?!"

    Romantic, suspenseful, thrilling. I could not wait for the sequel to FALLEN. Finally, COLD LIGHT is out, and I couldn't put it down! This novel moves relentlessly toward a climax that left me screaming for the next book in the series! The characters are vivid and Emma's choice between Haywood and Arthur is heart-rending. Five stars!

    What would you do if your daughter was stolen by Raiders? This is a story that will stir every parental emotion in you and then take you for a ride. Emma's daughter was taken by raiders and there is nothing she will not do to get her back. The books plot and pace was stunning with its action packed story line  and the dangers lurking around every corner. But she is not alone, she has loyal companions along the way. The world building is set in a post apocalyptic world. The characters were creatively built and I love how much they were relatable. Over all a great addition to the 1st book in this series.

    Cold Light is book two in the After trilogy. It is a dystopian n

    Cold Light is book two in the After trilogy. It is a dystopian novel about a a woman who goes in search of her daughter who was stolen by raiders. Emma, the main character, is a mother of two and is married to Haywood. Book two picks up a short while after book one ended. Emma has returned home with her husband and left her lover, Arthur, behind in Europe.

    The author creates a unique and rich world full of psychic abilities and the harsh realities of a post apocalyptic world. A "mist" has taken over and consumed a large portion of society. The mist not only devours objects, but also people and animals. The mist also gave humans either psychic abilities or left them insane.

    Society falls apart and must somehow be put back together. In the midst of this Emma must find her lost daughter. There are "safe zones" where groups of people have established a working community, outside of the "safe zones" lawlessness prevails. The remaining resources in the world are scarce and frequently fought after. Travel is limited to horseback as the gas supply at this point in the trilogy is virtually non-existent.

    Emma is caught between her duty and loyalty to her husband and her lingering feelings for her lover, Arthur who has traveled the world to find her again. This book drew me in immediately. I was mesmerized by the world that Slatton created. She transported me to the desolate and baron landscape where she took me on an incredible adventure. The characters were well developed and dialogue was seamless. Even after not having read the first book, I was able to fall in love with and become invested in the outcome of this book. 5 Stars. Well done!
