Emotionally awful for you and terrifying for others too because they adapt to human existence and no one knows they are living among us (and, of course, a major personality change occurs - and not for the good most times). You're destined to stay in your horrific dreams while the Vour lives through your body. When this happens, they enter your brain and the real you, the emotional you, is hidden in a place called a fearscape. Vour - an essence that brings your own fears to the surface by creating illusions, sounds, anything to scare you to the brink. The unexpected, jarring ending will leave you exclaiming with injustice and fear for Reggie and her friends, and hoping for a third book very, very soon. Though Soulstice doesn't have the downright, creepy feeling that the first book did, the characters are further developed and the stakes are higher, making it easy to get attached to them and be concerned for their well being. Reggie also explores fearscapes a bit more, which are imaginative, creepy, and sometimes a little gory, but also explore the idea of fear and its causes, effects, and manifestations.
In this sequel, readers learn much more about Vours and how they operate, answering some unaddressed questions left in The Devouring, and at the same time further scaring readers as Reggie discovers that one person after another in her life is somehow involved with the Vours. Like its prequel, Soulstice carries a thick, palpable air of danger and suspense that is unsettling and engrossing.
Then, Reggie is visited by the most unexpected person, who helps reveal just how deeply infiltrated the Vours are in Reggie's life and helps her realize that her strange powers have put her in far more danger than she really knows. But now the summer solstice is approaching, and the Vours begin to reign terror on them once more.
In the six months since Reggie, with the help of her best friend Aaron, rid Reggie's brother Henry of the Vour that possessed him, the Vours have been relatively quiet.
