I love the cover design for Beyond The Fifth Gate (by Donna Sundblad)! Typically, book cover designers are not looking to tell the story, but rather stop readers from scrolling long enough to check out the book. This book cover design does both, hinting at the storyline without revealing hardly a thing. I like how the title is spaced between the planets to imply travel. I personally feel the book cover design for Beyond The Fifth Gate is exceptional.
Instantly after finishing Beyond The Fifth Gate - I kept saying: "What a fantastic read that was!"
I had to take several days to digest it a bit before writing my review article for this project. In that time, I've spoken enthusiastically to my husband about it and now he wants to read it too.
The author provides readers with an incredibly unique and deeply entertaining ride... I didn't find myself skipping ahead out of boredom (which I often do). In between reading sessions I found myself often thinking about the characters, how they were feeling and what they were going through.
As a writer, I found myself occasionally pausing and reading sections several times - in awe of the author's use of language and seamless transitions.
Beyond The Fifth Gate features a female lead character that collaborates with many unlikely allies along her journey in following ancient prophecies. While she grew up with these prophecies, she often dismissed them and had forgotten many things. Interestingly there is this strong connection to a rare planetary event, and some type of quantum travel leading to other dimensions, or other planets.
Throughout the storyline the lead character struggles with the prophecies, as do her companions, while they learn to work with strangers and trust in support offered to them. Uprising against such a huge adversary seemed impossible, yet together they have a chance to create peaceful coexistence on all the worlds.
What I did feel after finishing the book... was getting another book written by Donna. Which proves she has written so well that the readers will be hooked and want more. In fact, I have already downloaded Wind Walker to my e-book reader just yesterday!
