"Tiger has one more foe to destroy... or her world will change forever"

Fresh Fiction Review

The Black Tide
Keri Arthur

Tiger has helped take down two out of the three people responsible for the plot to kidnap children and test them with unapproved and generally dangerous drugs in hopes of giving vampires and wraiths immunity to daylight. Only one person still remains, Ciara Dream. Unfortunately, Ciara is aware Tiger is coming. Jonas is by her side to help, but will they be able to destroy the last stronghold housing the experiments or will the world they know be forever changed with vampires and wraiths walking in daylight?

I have fallen in love with the desolate world featured in the Outcast series! Throughout the series, we see a study in contrasts, something that becomes even more evident in THE BLACK TIDE. Keri Arthur shows us the darker side, with the unconscionable kidnapping and experimentation on children, contrasted against the warmth and love we see between Tiger and her ghostly companions. Tiger wasn't a character I expected to like, either. She is a déchet, a genetically engineered soldier created specifically to sexually entice her targets and mine their memories for necessary intelligence- and yet now she is a protector for Bear, Cat, and all the other children destroyed in the war and left in their ghostly forms.

THE BLACK TIDE is almost non-stop action, as Tiger is in a race against the clock. Keri Arthur continues to amaze me at her gift for crafting stories that draw me into her world as she perfectly blends together phenomenal character development with spectacular world building. If you love dark urban fantasy or apocalyptic tales, then THE BLACK TIDE is right up your alley.

THE BLACK TIDE is the third and concluding book in the Outcast series. I've grown to love Tiger, Bear, Cat, Jonas, and all the rest of the characters and so it makes me more than a little sad to see this series ending. Bear and Cat have especially stolen my heart and I regret that I won't get to see them in future books as their loyalty as well as their antics always make me smile. Instead, I'll look forward to whatever worlds and adventures Keri Arthur has in store for me next!

SUMMARY

New York Times bestselling author Keri Arthur brings her Outcast series to a breathtaking conclusion as Déchet supersoldier Tiger races against time to save humanity from darkness and total annihilation….

Though Winter Halo–the pharmaceutical company behind the evil experimentation on both children and adults–has been destroyed, the danger is far from over. Not only do seven children remain unaccounted for, but some of the vampires are now able to walk in light.

The key to stopping the unthinkable lies in finding Ciara Dream, the last member of the trio behind the plot to give full light immunity to both the vampires and the Others. But Ciara, like Tiger herself, is a shapeshifter, able to take on any human form she desires.

To find her, Tiger will need to use every skill in her formidable arsenal, and even that might not be enough to save the city and the people she has started to care about.

Because the vampires are coming, and this time, the lights won’t stop them.
