The Shadow War

The Shadow War

Lindsay Smith2021
World War II is raging, and five teens are looking to make a mark. Daniel and Rebeka seek revenge against the Nazis who slaughtered their family; Simone is determined to fight back against the oppressors who ruined her life and corrupted her girlfriend; Phillip aims to prove that he's better than his worst mistakes; and Liam is searching for a way to control the portal to the shadow world he's uncovered, and the monsters that live within it--before the Nazi regime can do the same. When the five meet, and begrudgingly team up, in the forests of Germany, none of them knows what their future might hold. As they race against time, war, and enemies from both this world and another, Liam, Daniel, Rebeka, Phillip, and Simone know that all they can count on is their own determination and will to survive. With their world turned upside down, and the shadow realm looming ominously large--and threateningly close--the course of history and the very fate of humanity rest in their hands. Still, the most important question remains- Will they be able to save it?

First of all, I want to thank Penguinteen for sending me this book through NetGalley! When I first saw the description of this book, I wasn’t 100% set on if this would be up my alley. In the end, it was a very interesting read full of intriguing characters that are easy to fall in love with. The plot was also very interesting to read, and I loved the description that went into every scene. There was a lot of action-packed scenes, and it was definitely fast-paced! While reading this book, I got some major Stranger Things vibes so if you are a fan of that show, I highly suggest this book for you! All in all, I think this book just wasn’t for me. It wasn’t my favorite, but I enjoyed reading it! If you love historical fiction, mixed with some amazing romance, and some amazing characters,,‘The Shadow War” is the book for you! Be sure to mark your calendars for February 23, 2021 when this book is released to the world! Final Rating: 3/5 Stars ⭐️
