The Connection by Dana Claire
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Upon these extraterrestrials’ arrival on Earth, I’d be the first to volunteer for an encounter.
The opening scene immediately captivated my attention. Initially, I anticipated a relentless, action-packed narrative, but I was pleasantly surprised when the storyline transitioned to an environment I found nostalgic and enticing. The author masterfully generated real tension between the characters, making their magnetic attraction real to readers. The balance between veiling and unveiling the story’s central mystery was impeccable, ensuring readers remained absorbed, eager to reveal the secret.
The narrative in The Connection evoked memories of popular franchises like “Spy Kids,” “Supergirl,” “Vampire Diaries,” and “Men in Black.” However, it was evident that this tale was uniquely the author’s, showcasing a fresh world that left me yearning for more. The author has successfully crafted an alien universe that’s not only digestible but also ideally suited for adaptation into a television series. Despite its fictional nature, I found myself grinning frequently at the sheer delight the story brought me.
