MY REVIEW
In Book I of The E Apocrypha, Lost & Found, by Alex Andre, I was introduced to the different factions and characters, so As & When, Book II was so much easier to follow. It’s filled with details, creating a world that that paints a picture with words. I loved it.
Aileen is abducted, but beware to those that think she is a damsel in distress. When Bo returns from his travels, he does not hesitate to go after her. She has two me who are in love with her and I thought I knew which she would choose. I like how Alex Andre dealt with it better than my version.
I lived in Rochester, New York, for some years and I love that her travels throughout New York were familiar to me. Danger followed her every step of the way, but Bo and Ajinder are not far behind.
So much action and it was unpredictable. It’s not an every day occurrence, that an author can surprise me, keeping me on my toes. I love that I could follow the characters, choosing which I would favor and which would meet a grisly end, waiting to see how right…or wrong…I was. I love the rebuilding of the world, after all technology has been wiped out. I love the ‘library’ they find and only a select few realize how valuable the books are.
There is definitely room for more of the story and I have my fingers crossed that Alex Andre hears his characters talking, is haunted in his dreams, saying we have more to say, so keep writing.
I voluntarily reviewed a free copy of As & When by Alex Andre.
GOODREADS BLURB
They’ve messed with the wrong woman. Aileen’s got a city to run—its shady part, in any case. Abducted and whisked away from Locksville, she refuses to be a pawn in powerful players’ games. She most definitely is not a damsel in distress and needs no freakin knights in shining armor to come to her rescue. Alas, her best-laid escape plans misfire, landing her in even hotter waters far away from home. Aileen must find her footing in an unfamiliar, unforgiving society, fighting tooth and nail to survive.
Bo, Aileen’s sharp and grumpy advisor, would move mountains to find her, his limp and aversion to violence be damned to the Seven Hells! He wouldn’t trust anyone else with the impossible search for the most important person in his life.
Ajinder, executive protection specialist, won’t tolerate his principal being taken—by someone other than himself. He is no stranger to dispensing violence and doesn’t shy away from being on its receiving end. With his motivation stretching beyond pure professionalism, woe to those who question his skills and determination.
Will their grit, smarts, ruthless single-mindedness, and game-changing technology be enough to find Aileen before it’s too late?
As & When is Book 2 of The E Apocrypha.
Meet familiar faces from Lost & Found. Return to Locksville, New Kowloon, The Station, as well as discover new corners of the world that had lost all technology.

ABOUT ALEX ANDREA (from Amazon)
Alex has lived on three continents, is fluent in three languages, suffers an unhealthy interest in linguistics, and never has enough time to get to all the books on his ever-growing To Read list.
He has always appreciated (and envied) select authors’ ability to string words into elegant sentences and tie those sentences into intricate plots.
The time has come for him to try his own hand in the craft.
The E Apocrypha is his first series of novels.
