I am very stoked to be part of the tour for Uprising by Jessica Therrien! Uprising is the much anticipated sequel to Oppression as part of the Children of the Gods series.
The series has been one of my favorite books and with Uprising, I could just say that I couldn’t wait for the third book, fourth book, fifth book, sixth book, seventh book and so on! I don’t care how long this series would take but I will always be waving my banners for this series!
If ever Children of the Gods series would be picked as a television series or a film, I would definitely be the first one lining for it! So who would you cast as Elyse, William, Kara and Alex? Let’s find out if your picks matches Jessica Therrien’s dream cast.
CHILDREN OF THE GODS DREAM CAST. Hey all! I’m so excited to be here as part of my blog tour. Thanks for having me over, Mr. Book Wonder!
Every author gets asked the question: Who would your dream movie or television cast be for your series? It’s so much fun to think about. If Children of the Gods is ever picked up for film, I doubt I’ll have a say…but hey, I can dream! Here’s who I’d love to see play some of the main characters:
Emma Watson as ELYSE
Taylor Kitsch as WILLIAM
Lyndsy Fonseca as KARA
Ian Somerhalder as ALEX
Daniel Day Lewis as CHRISTOPH
Sandra Oh as ANNA
As for the other characters, I haven’t found anybody who really captures how I visualize them. If you’ve read the books, who are you picturing?

SYNOPSIS. Elyse has been in hiding for most of her life. Only now she’s hiding with William, and she knows who she’s hiding from. The Council wants a child Elyse and William have yet to conceive, a child who will be the next oracle, and who will provide the final piece to a plan Christoph has been organizing for years. Charged with leading the rebellion against Christoph and his Council, Elyse feels well out of her depth. But she has good friends and strong allies who are willing to fight with her to the end, regardless of how far they have to go, and how many lives will be lost in the process. They have one goal: to live freely and openly with the rest of humanity, out from under The Council’s oppressive rule. The stakes could not be higher for Elyse and the Descendants longing for freedom. They’ll have to learn to fight if they want to stand up against The Council, and to find allies in a world ruled by their enemies. The hardest part of waging a war is knowing who to trust. Elyse knows their uprising will change the world. She doesn’t realize it will change her, too.
