Publisher Description

Her genetic secret could change humanity forever. Her DNA grants her the ultimate power.  But all she wants is to disappear.  Looming buildings rise into the sky of a near-future America, shadowing the desperate poverty of the soovie parks, death doctors, and fear bombs. In this world of walled cities, where status matters most, Caitlyn Brown is desperate to remain invisible, wrongly believing what she needs to hide is the deformity on her back. The powerful want her for so much more.   She’s forced to take flight again, relying on the help of Razor, a street-smart illusionist she can’t trust. Her only hope is to reach friends already tracked by government.   With a twisted bounty hunter in full pursuit, she and Razor begin to learn the unthinkable about her past and the unique gifts of her DNA. It leads Caitlyn to a choice between the two men who love her, and whether to keep her freedom or sacrifice herself to change human destiny.   In this lightning-fast chase through an all-too-plausible future, best-selling author Sigmund  Brouwer is at his best.  Flight of Shadows is a terrifying ride into the heart of compelling moral questions about science and society.

"This is a well written suspense/Sci-Fi novel and I was hooked from the first page. I did not have the pleasure to read Broken Angel which was the first novel in the series but I had no difficulty following the storyline. My favorite character was Razor because he kept me guessing throughout the story. I never really knew whose side he was on and he was very street smart. If you are not into sci-fi this may not be the book for you because of all of the technology that is mentioned in the book. There were parts that were frightening and this may not be suitable for some readers. This is a page-turning novel and I enjoyed it!!"

    " I couldn't finish this book. I stopped at chapter 14, page 60. I am going to stop torturing myself by reading books that don't grab me from the beginning. I know, I've said it before. But I really mean it this time. This is more of a guy book, just like the first one was. The first book grabbed me more than this one did. It was also kind of gross and a bit creepy just like the first book. I normally don't like dark books, so why I thought I'd like the sequel to the first book is beyond me. I remember liking the themes of the first book more than the story itself. It's interesting if you like darker, futuristic novels with Big Brother themes and an underlying message. I just don't care for the characters enough to keep going. I didn't even the characters much after reading the first book. Sorry. "

    " If you like James Patterson's Fang and those in that series you'll love this one. I was pleasantly surprised with the book and would like to get the first and any future ones. "

    " It was stupid, unrealistic, too far fetched, gross, disgusting, down right bad. And the author doesn't seem to be a Christian even though this book is marketed by a Christian company. DON'T READ THIS BOOK!! "

    " I felt a little let down. After waiting an extra year for the follow-up to "Broken Angel", I didn't like the direction Brouwer took. Maybe because people felt he was writing a Christian "copycat" version of Patterson's Maixmum Ride series, but this book seemed a little too Orwellian. "

    " Full of invention, it sometimes soars, but often its flight is erratic where gusts of wind seem to blow it off course for a while, losing its emotional impact and our relating to the plight of the heroine. "

    " This is #2 in a series about a genetically engineered girl who can fly. She is hunted by many and protected by a loyal few. This is a good story that I enjoyed reading and would recommend to others. It is a dark and violent struggle for one girl to survive. "

    " I have to say that I won this book as part of the goodreads giveaway. I was suprised that this is a sequel. The main character Caitlyn was a bit two dimensional until near the end of the book. I had more interest following the two male leads Razor and Pierce. "
