Explanation Conducive To Books The Meq (The Meq #1)

In every generation, a fantasy novel is published that captures something essential and enduring about life that no other book has expressed in quite the same way. Here unfolds a journey of discovery–in a story that surprises us on every page. . . .

THE MEQ

On May 4, 1881, the day that Zianno Zezen–Z, for short–turns twelve, his life changes forever. Amid the confusion of a tragic train wreck, he has the first inkling that he is no ordinary boy . . . that he is not human at all, but instead a member of a race known as the Meq. The Meq have lost all memory of their origins; they do not know why they heal with astonishing speed, or why, once they turn twelve, they stop aging unless they meet the single other member of their race destined to join with them.

Certain Meq possess even more amazing powers, thanks to mysterious Stones they have carried since before the dawn of recorded history. Z’s father carried such a Stone, the Stone of Dreams. Now that Stone is Z’s to bear . . . and to protect.

The Meq are far-flung and elusive, but Z finds allies. He will need them; for a challenge comes from the renegade Meq called the Fleur-du-Mal–the Flower of Evil. A sadistic assassin in the body of a twelve-year-old boy, the Fleur-du-Mal will become Z’s archenemy in a story that spans decades and continents and features an unforgettable cast of characters, human and Meq alike.

Critique Appertaining To Books The Meq (The Meq #1)

love! love! love! love! love this book! i completely dove into the meq world. this book draws you into human history without you even being aware of it. you believe in these time dancers, these children that live beyond time and beyond the reaches of our sight. i loved how time was just a number and that it passed only as it affected those of us humans that surrounded these "children." i loved seeing how many lives they affected and how many humans accepted them. this book is full of love,

For the longest time, I was sure that this book was going to be one that I really didn't like --didn't enjoy. But even throwing my major complaint aside, that the book is slower than molasses climbing uphill, I still managed to read 250 of the 400 (and by the way, this definitely read as much longer than 400 pages) pages in one day.Yes, this is a slow burn if I have ever read a slow burning book. Is that a bad thing? Well, not necessarily. People certainly have given up on less, but I put the

Recommended to me by my friend, Condra, who is a scifi/fantasy geek girl with great Prada boots, I was not sure at first if it was gonna be any good.That was on page 1 and when I resurfaced a day later I was done and was so glad I listened to her...again(she also recommended Black Jewels Trilogy).It's impossible to sum this book up into a small amount of space. Just give it a chance if you are looking for a unique vision.

I just finished reading The Meq by Steve Cash yesterday. And, at the risk of gushing, the word awesome really doesnt do this book justice. The Meq was Cashs first novel, but the richness of the text and the strong characters seem like the work of veteran writer. So, you may ask, what is the Meq about? The quick version is that its a story akin to the Highlander movies. But that doesnt really explain much.The Meq are a mysterious race of immortals that have been around since, well, the beginning.

I really enjoyed this book; it was a little slow-paced at times, but it was a good story.At the age of twelve, Zianno Zezen (Z) is left orphaned with the knowledge taht he is not like most people. He is Meq-an ancient race whose memembers do not age once they reach the age of twelve until they meet their ameq (beloved) and cross over with them when the time is right. It is only after this that they age and bear a Meq child. There are very few Meq left in the world, and Z befriends several and

The book is in a lot of ways a good example of the worst in fantasy and science fiction. The story is ridiculous and doesn't hold up under its own internal logic. The characters are trite and cliche. The plot is essentially "What if the immortals from Highlander stopped aging when they were twelve and added an exclamation point to the end of every sentence they uttered?"This is the authors first so its possible that the second book in the series is better, but frankly this book is wretched

A suspenseful novel about a unique race of people, the Meq, who after age 12 become immortal and never physically grow older until they find the one other Meq destined to them, their Ameq, and choose to reproduce.A quick book, a real page-turner. The only downer is the amount of sexual child abuse and slavery in the book, though integral to the revenge of certain characters.It was not that large of a cliff-hanger for me, and I am not moved to find a copy of the second book at any cost. An
