Thank you @randomTTours and @guyportman for being part of this tour and reviewing this book. The Emergence is a dark read and is fourth book in the seris. This is the first book i have read by Guy Portman and you can read it as a standalone like i did. The Emergence is very dark and the story is about Horatio who is a sociopath and hates his step dad and will do anything to get read of him. The story is well written and i will definatly read the rest of the seris. The story draws you in and you have to get to the rnd to see what happends 4 stars.

Like the author, the...
