The Alpha Awakens by Anna FuryMy rating: ⭐⭐⭐ stars
The Alpha
Awakens is book one in the Alpha Compound series by Anna Fury. The book focuses
on the characters Mallory and Orion. When the virus hits the world, it brought
about changes that only effects men, making them into violent, killing machines
at least according to Mallory who watched a loved one go through the change. Now
living an isolated and often scared life seems to be the way to go. That is
until she gets onto the radar of not one, but two Awakened, but especially that
of Orion an Alpha who is captivated by Mallory to begin with. Since Mallory is
a journalist, it only seems fitting that she looks into the Awakened world to
see what it is truly about, no matter how frightening it can be. There she may
find a place where she truly belongs.
This book
definitely has a lot going on, set in a post-apocalyptic time with an
Omegaverse feel and throw in a bit of werewolf too, it is going to appeal to a
lot of readers! The story is quite slow-paced as we see through the eyes of
both Mallory and Orion as well as learn about the Awakened and what it means to
become and be one and builds up into some people keeping secrets and not always
being honest. As a first book though, it definitely was an introduction into
the world of the Alpha Compound.
The chemistry between Mallory and Orion is instantly hot and as you read more of the book, you find out why that is and what it means for both of them. Both characters were really likeable, and their relationship flowed quite easily. You are definitely left with some questions regarding the Alpha/Omega/Awakened story line but I’m sure that the answers are to come in further books. Overall, an enjoyable read!
