Nov 05, Rebecca Edwards rated it really liked it. I'm still confused with all the parasite talk and trying to keep all of them straight.

Even though that has me confused it didn't stop me from enjoying the story. This story is still just as action packed as the first book maybe even more so than the first one. All the action kept me wondering what they would get into next. Elei, Kalaes, and Hera have grown quite a bit in this book. Hera doesn't seem so cold hearted she shows real concern when she thinks they are being tortured by the Gultur.

Yep you heard me right the Gultur are still looking for him. Though Elei managed to bleed in the fountain not all of the Gultur were affected and those that weren't want him found. This book was even harder for me to review cause of my dislike of spoilers. Elei is drawn to Hera and I'm interested to see what's gonna happen with this with Rex. This was a good book that I would recommend to anyone that loves Science Fiction books. I look forward to reading the next book in the series even though I do get confused at times.

Thank you Chrystalla Thoma for opening me up to different books. Jul 22, Douglas Cook rated it it was amazing Shelves: He stared at the sliver of metal thrust into his bruised flesh, wondering what drew him out of his drugged sleep. Then his eyes drifted closed again, dreams crowding behind his lids. A vicious stab in his stomach jerked him wide awake and he curled around the pain, his breathing harsh and shallow.

Rex, the king of his parasites, had sensed something. Using his non-too-clean sheet to staunch the bleeding, he glanced around the room, blinking to clear his eyes. The meds made him sluggish, and his body felt heavy and cold like stone. Mar 18, Rick Taubold rated it it was amazing Shelves: Where sometimes second novels disappoint, this one improves on an already great story concept and set of characters. The opening, which picks up where the first novel left off, is equally compelling: Even more compelling than her first novel, "Rex Cresting" takes the reader back into Elei's world where he and his friends face new challenges and new dangers.

I won't spoil the story by revealing anything other than to say that if you read and enjoyed "Rex Rising," you'll love this one. Read the synopsis of this one if you want to know more. Then purchase and read the novel. You will not be disappointed. Both novels are on my "highly recommended" list for readers of all genres. Dec 22, Angus rated it it was amazing. Elei continues the adventure started in the book Rex Rising only now he is starting to piece together parts of a message that he thought were just shards of dreams.

The new disease that is gaining ground in his body is giving him superhuman powers.

He will need every edge he can get to solve the mystery his mentor left and help the world emerge from the Gultur oppression. In this installment Elei begins to feel for the people around him and a family starts to take shape. Creepy bit is his halluci Elei continues the adventure started in the book Rex Rising only now he is starting to piece together parts of a message that he thought were just shards of dreams.

Creepy bit is his hallucinations and the disease controlling animals in order to protect him. I'm cheering this series on. This is the second of a series that is more than a trilogy in YA to adult science fiction and it is very addicting. I enjoyed it and recommend it. Oct 23, C. Brown rated it it was amazing Shelves: Rex Cresting, the second book in this series by Chrystalla Thoma, continues Elei's battle with the Gultur and his own parasites, Rex and Chronion. A new character is introduced from Hera's past, which the group of friends are divided between deciding whether she is friend or foe.

Elei and his friends have unlocked the weapons held underground, but the Gultur regime is not so easily put down. Mantis and his ragtag army of kids need all the help they can get. Elei, Kalaes and Alendra return to Artemisia to create a diversion, while Hera, Sacmis and Mantis attack Dakru City, in a final attempt to bring peace.

But with a net of betrayal closing around them and Rex set against Regina in a final confrontation, the price might prove too heavy. Although they may sound like pure fantasy, the parasites described in this novel are based in part on real life parasites. I do not intend to write a diatribe on parasites, neither am I a biologist, so I will just say what I want to say very briefly:.

Parasites fascinate me, they are indeed very fantastical creatures. Mostly they cause illnesses and death, but some are useful and we humans have coexisted with them from the beginning of our existence. In case you are wondering if a parasite can really create a race of women who reproduce by parthenogenesis, i. If you just type the name in google, you will get plenty of sites. Efforts have been made to control such invasive species by introducing another species. For instance, on the Bat Islands of Costa Rica, rats were introduced by man and completely took over the ecosystem. So, cats were introduced to control them.

Now they are reaching a balance. Therefore, I do think that it is a possibility. You can check on the internet about invasive species or assisted dispersion to read more about the topic. Regarding parasites attracting each other or attracting their hosts, read for instance about the Toxoplasma gondii — parasite we humans often get from cats. Studies have shown that when rats get infected with it, instead of avoiding cats and places cats frequent marked by cat urine , they actively seek them out.

In effect, they seek to be eaten, so that they can pass the parasite to the cats where it will continue its life cycle. Read Parasite Rex mentioned above for many examples of behavior-modifying parasites. We meet Hera in the opening chapters of Rex Rising. She is one of the main characters and plays an important role in the story. Before the events in Rex Rising, before Elei met Kalaes and Hera, another boy reached the island of Dakru, and this one was filled with rage. Mantis on Smashwords Free!

Feel free to ask me for more if you want! The Gultur themselves pronounce it differently from us mere mortals…. You will find that the terms listed below are taken from ancient and modern Greek, Latin, ancient Egyptian, probable common Indo-European roots and my own whacked imagination….

All town names are ancient Greek town names and their origin is not really known Priene, Thuri, Elatia, Gortyn, Angon , except for: Sometimes they are phosphorescent.

They also carry drones they can send to track down people on the ground.

Not as strong as telmion, it can be controlled with suppressants, but if left unchecked, usually proves lethal. On the surface, it manifests as white spiderweb-like patterns on the skin.
