Blog Tour & Review - For The Clan by Archer Kay Leah



For the Clan 

Archer Kay Leah
Publication date: May 25th 2016
Genres: Adult, Romance, Science Fiction

Canada, 2165 AD. The Water Wars and a decimated economy have taken their toll. Anyone who doesn’t live in a military-patrolled metropolis lives in a clan. But being in a clan doesn’t mean safety.
And for a Ven like Roan Lee, it doesn’t matter where he lives. Safety is a luxury. So is freedom.
Roan is desperate to escape the governtary’s exploitation and torture. He is nothing to them but 54σK1, an artifact born from a genetic mishap. When the chance to escape arises, he makes a run for it—and encounters the lover from his past, twisting his future into a second chance he never expected.
As leaders of Clan Teach, Jace Ama and his wife, Cayra Diega, have enough difficulty keeping their people safe. When Roan is thrown to their feet as a prisoner, their marriage becomes an additional challenge. Jace still loves Roan, but where does that leave Cayra?


REVIEW
This is my first read from Archer Kay Leah so i had no expectations going in. I enjoy a wide range of reads and sometimes its great to step away and try something different and i'm glad i took a chance on this book.
For The Clan is a  sci-fi paranormal dystopia mmf romance. But please don't just focus on the mmf romance part as this read is much more. The book does focus a lot on the sci-fi and paranormal side and the love story is just an added bonus. We start the book with Jace and Roan as 16 year old boys civilization has been left devastated by wars over water rights the "Governtary" are a military governing power but aside from them we get factions and clans trying to live and survive off the land and keep themselves out of the grasps of the Governtary. During these wars chemicals were fired upon populations resulting in some humans being born different in that they have magical powers these people are known as "Vens" even though the only difference is there powers but this leads to them becoming targets, the goventary decide they can be used as powerful weapons to control the clans and fractions and set out to collect, imprison and control as many Vens as they can.
Jace and Roan are living in one of these clans with there relationship blossoming into more than just friendship with stolen moments together falling in love, but Roan is a Ven and its on one of these days when there together alone that the Goventary come and rips their world apart taking Roan and placing him in their program.
Jace is just a kid and is powerless to stop this happening loosing his best friend and love he thinks Roan is lost or dead to the Goventary and has to live his life with a piece of his heart missing.
Roan life is taken from him in that he becomes a lab rat with the Goventary experimenting and torturing him and using his powers to destroy want they want over the next 15 years. That is until the day Roan escape's and finds himself captured again but his world is thrown on its axis when he is brought before the Clan leader... Jace!!
Now i really don't want to give much more away and believe me there is more that happens. I will say this as its in the blurb Jace is now married and his wife is a beautiful, wonderful understanding wife and this leads to a beautiful story of the three of them coming together with love and understanding, but the threat is always there with the Goventary and they are not just going to leave there prized possession in Roan.
The writing in this book flowed it isn't just some erotic mmf read even though it works where placed within the story and gives us more. If you enjoy Dystopia/paranormal and don't mind the added bonus of a romance then i would recommend this read.
