Somebody wanted Minerva Rus dead. They succeeded. But Minerva isn’t letting a little thing like death stop her. After the dangerous adventure that killed her in Memortality, Minerva Rus has reconciled herself to being dead. She and her also-dead boyfriend Raven share an amazing gift that allows them to bring the dead back to life―including each other. Now that Jules, their most dangerous enemy, has been banished from reality and trapped inside her own mind, Minerva and Raven plan on enjoying the eternity of their unnatural lives. But immortality isn’t safe. Minerva and Raven’s life-giving powers mysteriously fade, forcing them to take refuge in The Between, a shadowy realm of memories that lies between life and death. What's more, their old adversary Jules is on the loose, partnered with a resurrected Nazi scientist planning a monstrous experiment that will change the destiny of the human race. And now it's up to a 21-year-old dead girl to save the world―again.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"An intense, action-packed, intriguing novel, and I absolutely loved it." ― Jazzy Book Reviews

"I loved this book, it is amazing and unlike any storyline I have read in ages. If you want to read something with plenty of action with a nasty baddie, then this is for you. I can’t praise this book enough ... I loved every minute of reading it." ― Cheryl Whitty, Book Addict Live

"I'm loving this story and I can't wait to see how this series comes together at the end." ― Erik Rosario, Genre Book Reviews

"Bloody genius! Quite different from anything I have recently read. The characters are complex and fascinating, the premise truly original ... if you like some fantasy with action and a bit of adventure then this is the book for you." ― Am Kinda Busy... Reading!

"Five stars. This fantasy is filled with devastating plot twists, time travel, stopping some villains, and a heart filled romance! The plot twists in this book are beyond crazy, I’m talking like crazy rollercoaster ride. Each time I suspected something to come it pulled a 180 on me and did something else." ― bookishnerdygirl

5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Fantasy!
Reviewed in the United States on September 13, 2018
I loved this book, it is amazing and unlike any storyline I have read in ages. I mean it is really not every day that the “undead” walk among us in non-zombie form. I love anything with originality and this had plenty of that. This is actually book two, but after a bit of confusion I picked up what was happening. The first book is called Memortality, and I must go back and read it.
I loved the main characters Minerva and Raven and even Carson. No spoilers and if you read the blurb, I don’t want to repeat myself  except to say if you want read something with plenty of action with a nasty baddie, then this is for you. I would advise reading Memortality first to get the full effect. I can’t praise this book enough I rarely give 5 stars, but I’m willing to give this one 6 stars if available. I loved every minute of reading it. Now I’m waiting for book 3.
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

I’ve read both Memorality and Paralucidity. I’m not a fantasy or six fan but I think I’ve become a believer. This is a fast-paced, thrilling adventure that I couldn’t put down. Do yourself a favor...buy the book and become a believer.

5.0 out of 5 stars contemporary fantasy
Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2019
266 page contemporary fantasy. Sequel to “Memortality”.

Another captivating novel by Stephen Provost that is just as thrilling as the first book of the saga.

Minerva is at it again, with Raven at her side and keeping her in his thoughts. Literally. With the two of them encompassed in the “Between”, they meet and experience the person that many believe is the man that Robin Hood was fashioned after. But is he an ally or an enemy?

Arch enemy Jules returns to create more havoc, but this time she has help from a Nazi scientist. Together they develop a plan that will not only ensure they can bring people back from the “Between” but also give them the ability to close the “Between”.

Well written. Fast reading.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great YA Fantasy read
Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2018
Paralucidity is the second book in the YA fantasy Memortality series. Not having read the first book, I was a bit confused; however I found myself quickly drawn into the fast-moving storyline.
I found the characters to be fascinating, and was intrigued by their plight. Minerva and Raven are dead, but somehow brought each other back to some state of being through their memories of each other.
A super top secret branch of the government, the FIA, intends to program them to be a sort of super soldiers or weapons. Carson, and FIA agent, turned good guy, breaks them out and they are on the run.
Again, I was a bit confused in the beginning, so I would not consider this book a good standalone; however, it was extremely well-written and all in all was extremely entertaining!
