Cameron Jace

{My Thoughts} – This book picks up a short time after the first concludes. I don’t think I have had the pleasure of reading such a mad series before, however, in this case mad is a very good thing. Alice is still unsure about who she is? She still doesn’t know if she is the real Alice or not despite the Pillar telling her that she is over and over again, merely because he believes she is. His belief in her doesn’t appear to be enough to sway her judgement though. She also, is still show more trying to understand Jack’s roll in her life, she knows that he is Adam her boyfriend that had died, but if he is dead how is her always around for her when she needs him to be there and help her out?

There are so many questions answered in this book, that had been left unanswered in the first one. There are also many more questions that are brought to light without any clear answers. I can’t wait to have the pleasure to read more of this series in the future to get many of the answers to the questions I have. In this book we learn a lot more about Alice or is it more about the mad world that she prefers to live in, inside her head. I am unclear as the book is written in a way that it makes you question back in forth, what is sane and what is insane? And you never really have a clear answer.

I have to say that this book is remarkably well written and I am glad to say that Cameron Jace has pulled it off again. He has taken a classic tale and turned it into a modern remake that is so full of twists and turns that you never really know what is happening until after it happens. I truly enjoy his ability to retell stories so that they are interesting and attention grabbing and difficult to walk away from. show less

He's done it again, another hit! Cameron Jace has masterfully blended the classical world of Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland with his own non sensical version of a world, creating a thrilling adventure into madness. The story is well written, with solid characters created with such depth that you begin to doubt the sanity and clarity of their "true" identities yourself. Once again, I found myself falling in love with characters, like The Pillar, that have questionable qualities about show more them. This version of Alice is a girl that I love. She is not Carroll's timid young thing. She is both adorable in her "madness" yet terrifying. I want to hug her yet run from her at the same time. This is one of Jace's best books so far. I laughed out loud, felt sorrow, was appalled at times and was left craving more. I want more! show less

This book is complete insanity and I loved it! Alice is in an insane asylum. She killed her friends in a bus accident years ago. She has no memories except for the past week. Now she meets Professor Pillar, a serial killer that is also the caterpillar from Wonderland. He tells her the Cheshire cat is on a killing spree and convinces her to help save the victims. Alice meets the White Queen, Jack Diamonds and eventually the Cheshire cat himself during her twisted journey. Things get very show more confusing towards the end of the book and you have no idea what is real and what is not. Is it all in Alice's head? I guess I will just have to take another "mad" ride and read book 2 to find out. show less

Wow, I was very impressed by this book. It was exciting and gave just enough clues and twists that you just had to turn the page to find out what was gonna happen next.

It's been a very long time since I read Alice in Wonderland and I have a vague memory about the characters. I liked that the author told just enough about the characters in wonderland to get you familiar with who Alice was dealing with. I also love the history that they told about Lewis Carroll, I never knew any of that. And show more the way the Author weaved history with his storyline, it was all done beautifully.

I haven't read a story like this before and I would definitely recommend this book to anybody. It was new and fresh and I really enjoyed it.

I was given this book by the author for an honest review. show less
