A Perfect Darkness The Offspring Jaime Rush 9780061690358 Books Reviews

I enjoyed this novel, for me it was a good read i just could not put it down and until I reach the end.
Won't be buying anymore books by this author- Not worth the money.

Boring is the only work i can use to describe this book
I love adventure mixed with a little romance... this one gave me both! The men are dreamy, rough and tumble with just the right amount of tenderness.
This was a really good book, but the writing could have been a little better. I loved the whole idea though, so that kept me interested in the book. It was a really good start to the series!
What an excellent read! What adventure and passion! Jaime Rush kept me wanting
more and more! Couldn't put it down! M. F. Elliott, author of COUNTESS
STORY BRIEF
Around 25 years ago, a US government agency experimented with psychic people, trying to enhance their powers with a drug. Most or all of those psychics died, we are not sure how or why. The government agency has been watching the children of the psychics called Offspring. The agency doesn't want the Offspring to know about each other. Lucas is an Offspring who can see into the future and enter other people's dreams. He has been entering Amy's dreams for years. When he visits Amy for the first time, the agency arrests him and conducts drug experiments on him. Amy learns that she is an Offspring, and she meets two of Lucas's friends who are also Offspring. Most of the story is the threesome evading government people, trying to learn about their parents and other Offspring and trying to rescue Lucas from his imprisonment.

REVIEWER'S OPINION
This is the first book in a series by author Jaime Rush. She previously wrote books under the name Tina Wainscott. This book did not interest me enough to buy the sequel. The theme of the story was "good guys being victims." I didn't feel any satisfying closure at the end. The bad guys were still out there and getting stronger. There were no details revealed about the bad guys or their history which bothered me. There was no revenge against the bad guys or solving the mystery. (Ok, I will admit some mysteries were solved in order to make a story, but not the significant ones.) The Offspring still didn't know much about their parents. It ended with the victims planning to work together against the bad guys in future books. There were too many unanswered questions. I was disappointed with the last page which had two cliffhangers. I was also annoyed with the frequent use of cliffhangers at the end of several chapters. For example on page 299, Petra is running from the bad guys, she turned. "One of the guards broke into view, his gun aimed at her." The next sentence is a scene with other characters in another place. Six pages later, the author returns to the Petra scene. I would have preferred that Petra either gets caught and locked up or is in the car driving away free, and then end the scene. I prefer suspense due to action and events, not through artificial cliffhangers. I'm willing to accept occasional use, but not as many as the author used.

There is no personality development or relationship development between Lucas and Amy. They just know they are in love with each other, even though they have never met, except in their dreams. I didn't mind this, but I only mention it because some readers might prefer more character or romantic development than what was here.

On the positive side, it did hold my interest. I wanted to see what would happen. The characters were interesting due to their skills.

CAUTION SPOILER

The characters had potential due to their skills, but it didn't happen, for example I had a hard time believing that Lucas didn't use his powers to escape or do something interesting to his captors. He was able to enter someone's dreams, see their thoughts, communicate with them, and kill them. Darkwell requested that Lucas kill other people in their sleep who were supposed enemies of the government. I ask why didn't Lucas enter Darkwell's dreams and see that Darkwell was planning to kill Lucas? Lucas could have mentally killed, made unconscious, or done something else interesting to Darkwell and the guards and then escape. Lucas could have threatened one of the guards by claiming he would harm a family member unless the guard helped him get free. Instead, Lucas killed the guys Darkwell wanted him to and continued being a prisoner. There was potential for something interesting here instead of continuing the victim theme.
I was fascinated with this first offering in a series about the Offspring, a group of young men and women a shadowy offshoot of the U.S. government stalks, captures, exploits and then disposes of in order to achieve certain international goals. An intense lucid-dreaming relationship drives the passion and narrative strategy of the tale. Having been a lucid dreamer for some years, I found myself anticipating each dream sequence. However, although this novel falls into the genre of paranormal romance, and much of the plot centers on psychic powers, it is the emotional development of the Offspring, especially the sacrifices they make for others, that offers a deeper message Humans have the ability to develop technological and psychic powers. However, these powers, though alluring, are beneficial or dangerous depending on the quality of light in the heart of the person wielding them.
The way one of the Offspring, Lucas, steals into people's dreams can serve as a metaphor for the way the novelist has the psychic ability to color the reader's own consciousness. Miss Rush certainly tinted this reader's dreams, painting with a palette as luminous as it is dark and making him want more. . .
