Dead End: Kiera Hudson Series Two (Book Ten) (Kiera Hudson Vampire Detective Series Two)

Perfection!
We have reached the end my fellow Kiera junkies. I have never been so attached to characters like I am with Kiera, Potter, Isidorable, Kayla, Murphy, Melody, and the rest. I started the Kiera Hudson series back in 2011. When the only book out in the series was 'Vampire Shift.' I have waited patiently, along with the rest of Tim's die-hard fans, for each new additon.There have been other series that I have followed, one of which became a famous T.V. show, but I usually get burnt out by the 7th or 8th book in. That was never the case with this series, though. This is book 18 ( 18!!!!), besides the run-offs and prequels, but I never got tired of it. Quite the opposite. I always wanted - no, needed- more. And I still do.Dead End is just like the rest... freaking outstanding! As usual, my heart was constantly running a race, I wanted to read it so fast, yet savor every moment, and I shed some tears. My beloved family ( aren't they yours by now as well) and their worlds came to and end. Its is bittersweet to say the least.My heart is sad, yet full at the same time. I don't think Tim could have ended the series in a more perfect way! I now have so many questions of to where things will go from here ( as usual with Tim's books), but one thing is for certain... I know series 3 will be a flipping amazing ride! Thank you, Tim, for giving us such kick a$$ adventures, phenomenal characters, and for continuing the series.'Now this is not the end. It is not even the beginning of the end. But it is, perhaps, the end of the beinning.' - Winston ChurchillIs it too soon to ask for series 4? ; )

Great Ending To The Series!!
What a great end to the second series for Kiera and the gang! I have been a fan of this series since the very first book, Vampire Shift (Kiera Hudson Series 1, book 1). I have all of the books from both series and I can’t get enough of them. Vampires and werewolves, what more do you need? Well, let’s see…. obviously the characters have to be amazingly described and the world building has to be up to par. Tim O’Rourke gives you that, times 10. He not only keeps it so mysterious and suspenseful, but he makes you fall in love with the characters. From the brave MC, Kiera, to the sarcastic Potter (I do love his character), this series is just awesome.From the moment Kiera Hudson steps into the mysterious town of Ragged Cove, she has been a fighter. She is headstrong and will not back down from what she believes in. Finding out the truth about her parents and undergoing a transformation that even she didn’t see coming, has been well worth the struggles that she has been through. She manages to fall in love along the way, and that love gives her the strength to carry on and set the world right again. I could read the books forever and still not get enough.I can’t review this without giving away key plot points, but if you haven’t read this series, then you need to. Especially, if you love vampires and werewolves. Although, this series has a different take on both creatures. I really love the whole vampyrus and skin walkers take that is happening in this fantastic world that Tim created. Can’t wait for the new series to come later this year! Again, great ending for the series.

What a roller coaster ride of emotions
What a wild rollercoaster ride it has been and from the very beginning of Series one I was totally hooked on these books. The characters have such depth and empathy for each other although Potter did need to work on his "people skills" from time to time. The storylines explore the abilities and fragilities of the characters who are strong at times yet still vulnerable to those they love most of all. The relationships between the characters like Isidor and Melody, Kayla and Sam and of course Kiera and Potter are believable but challenging at times and therefore relatable, not that instant love connection which seems to be quite common now.They become a ragtag family of sorts throughout Series 1 and Two. Tim's stories have something for everyone, intense emotions, full on adventure and thought provoking chapters that keep you guessing throughout the book. Tim is a master storyteller and you are captivated by the story lines as they are seamlessly woven together to form one big tapestry where all the threads are tied up quite nicely in this last book.A fitting ending to this adventure in the "Pushed World" and Kiera once again chooses well and puts her heart on the line yet again. I can't wait to see what happens next in the new series and one thing is for sure, it will never be what I expect and it will never be boring.

Kiera and Potter
A wow factor! I had to pause... think ... and think some more on my reaction towards Kiera's decision - (mixed emotions)I have enjoyed reading all the Hudson's series and its fantastic how Tim has portrayed Kiera as a strong women right from the beginning to the end! I was totally immersed and caught in the superficial world of Kiera and Potter.

Addicting series!
An amazing series that I couldn't put down. Get ready because I promise this is not what you were expecting! Drama, mystery, romance it has it all. Get ready to spend a little though because there is a lot of book in the series but your hooked with book 1 series 1 and can't stop!

Amazing!
A heart pounding read! Action packed and full of twists and turns. I was so excited to read this book and I was not let down. So much suspense that I couldn't put it down until I finished it because I couldn't wait to see what was going to happen next.

Perfect ending and new beginning
Others have summed up this series much better than I could. So I will just say that Tim is my favorite author. This series has been a fantastic roller coaster ride. The ending was perfect. I look forward to the new series.

Dead end
fantastic book to end series 2. I enjoyed the book couldn't put it down it didn't end the way I thought it would and I was rather sad thinking Keira had lost all her friends but then along comes the epilogue and a new beginning for Keira, she meets potter in a new world where they don't know each other but the book ends with a promise of a new series and a new adventure for Keira and potter. Cannot wait for the new series to start hope Keira meets all her other friends and they share a new adventure. Well done Tim a great series.

Another great read! Well done Tim.
Another great addition, can't beleive its the last in the series! Love the characters and even started to find jack Seth hilarious in book 9. Pleased I started reading them recently as I've never put my iPad down.... Took me three weeks but I've read series one and two now.... Even started dreaming about reading! Don't think I could have been patient enough to wait for new releases! Didn't love the ending... Think I wanted a big more happy & 'lovey dovey' but hey.... Bring on the 'creeping men' 😳 we never know what might happen,Well done Tim ... Another great read.

Totally cool
Omg what a read. You sure made me feel emotions in this book Tim. All the characters seem to take a place, Plus some connections to the prequels are uncovered. I loved the part which said ' It seemed the monster had always been hiding amongst the beautiful flowers but was waiting to be set free ' Amazing as usual. Can not wait to see where n when lol, you take Kiera and the gang . :)

Fabulous
I have read series one and two in 2 weeks, I am a fast reader but I could not put the books down, well written with many twists and turns I'm now about to order other books by Tim O'Rourke. He is a very clever writer just the right amount of gore, romance and detective work mixed in. These books felt very real.

What a finale
Wow what a finale, another masterpiece by Tim O'Rourke. I loved it, was freaked out by it and cried whilst reading it too. Sad it's the last in the series but buzzing theres going to be another Series :)
