A Chapter A Day: Day 4 "Sea of Souls" by Seth Ervin and Casey Eanes

                                                                   A Chapter A Day: Day 4 Reviewing book two in the Keys of Candor Series, Sea of Souls, by Casey Eanes and Seth Ervin.

Hey there everyone! Seeing how it is 1AM on the dot I am obviously a little bit late with todays review so I am terribly sorry about that. Let's continue like I am not horribly late, K?
As always I hope you are doing well and excited to join me in my reading/reviewing. Grab your books and lets read chapter 4!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~25 minutes later~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This chapter was short which is a blessing in disguise, I have to sleep and be awake in 4 hours but don't tell anyone that.

Bronson "The Cinnamon Roll" Donahue is such a good guy at this point! He deserves better :/
So Bronson is on team good guy and appears to know Ewing.
Adley and Ewing are safe and both still in Vale working. That is all good news to me because I was severely concerned about all of them, especially Adley.
One of the highlights for the Ewing/Bronson interaction was just the straight up trust between them. I might be reading into this a little too much but during their brief conversation Ewing agreed to hide Bronson's family, he did ask why but he would do it no matter the answer. That is a huge sign of trust and loyalty. In a normal, non-war cursed world hiding someone's family still requires a reason so the fact that Ewing will spend those resources and probably use a few favors to do it is special to me.

Speaking of our elderly, (no offense intended, maybe slight sarcasm. 50 is not old.)
We got to learn a little bit more about Grift's military days!
Just a little teaser information about how he started his military experience 40 years ago. However, somehow in that 40 years he missed the "How to spot a trap" class.
When you find a small town with no lights on and looks like it may have been abandoned... That is a prime example of a trap.
At first I thought that it would have been set by the military because they knew he would be looking for gas for the rook but when he started "seeing things" I knew it wasn't going to be that easy.
I think that adding the town full of Morels was a good call on the authors part. This adds a reminder for the readers that not even the once populated and protected towns are safe, Seam isn't the only danger to Candor. This chapter does an excellent job of hinting at that.

With all that being said, I think that this series would make a wonderful movie series. Provided the movie was the same as the book. It has all the desired elements for a quality film. We have War, Politics, bloodshed, lies, monsters, strong bonds and exotic and unexplored worlds. I hope that this one day becomes a thing, except if it did happen and the movie wasn't just like the book I would be that one person who constantly says "In the book-"
Ah sweet, sweet nerds.
Thank you for joining me for todays chapter! I am so sorry about it being late but it was... unavoidable. I hope to see you again tomorrow, or later today I guess.
Have a good day!
