Resumen del Editor

In the heart-pounding sequel to the "zippy, gripping psychological drama" (Kirkus Reviews) Killer Instinct, teen vigilante Lane must face the secrets and unexpected consequences that arise in the wake of her first kill.

It's been three months since Lane made her first kill - the sadistic Decapitator - and now she feels both closer and more alienated than ever from her united, grieving family. Haunted by conflicting memories of her mother, Lane resumes her role as the vigilante Masked Savior out of a feeling of obligation - but her heart just isn't in it anymore. Now that Lane has felt the rush of deeper, darker thrills, a growing part of her wants to revisit its seductive power, and she's not sure how long she can resist.

Meanwhile, the Masked Savior has inspired its own fan site, where groupies gather online to praise, document, and debate each delivered act of justice. But one of Lane's secret admirers is becoming a cunning copycat, exacting "justice" on defenseless innocents, increasing the violence with each attack.

Someone is watching Lane, edging closer to making contact - someone who knows her darkest secrets. Will Lane be able to stop the copycat and keep her identity protected, or will she give in to the thrills that tempt her?

Very Good

I loved this book, easy to follow, interesting characters, looking forward to the next one!!!

No true conclusions

This book doesn't really have any ending. It just stops; the story stops. Obviously this is a segue into the next book in the series, but there is no next book published.

Waiting for the sequel

I'm very pleased with not only the authors work but the audible artist was even better. The author, as you can tell is newer, but is coming into the genre very easily. She does force some of the story and a few of the twist are quite contrived, but it is fun. This isn't on the level of Stephen King or Clive Barker, however, for entertainment it is great. One I listed to the first book in the series, I couldn't wait for the second and I am looking forward to the third.

wanted more

good second book. but definitely a YA. I was left wanting more. I hope for another to come along.

slow

not a bad story but I think it was ment for a younger audience. well narrated just wasn't what I expected from the reviews.

Justice or revenge?

Would you listen to Killer Within again? Why?

Probably not. I did enjoy this book as well as the first in the series, Killer Instinct. The plot is well written and I will listen to more from the author and would like to see a third book in this series. Once all is revealed however, there isn't much reason to listen to the book a second time.

What other book might you compare Killer Within to and why?

I really don't like comparing one book to another, as it puts certain expectations on the reader. This storyline differs from the first book quite a bit. While it continues to be about the same characters, the killer was revealed in Killer Instince and only provides the influence for the characters decisions in this book.

Which scene was your favorite?

I don't really have a favorite scene from this particular book. My favorite part would be the multiple characters to choose from as the copy cat.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I didn't laugh or cry during this book. I did feel anger toward the grandfather and the way he treated his grandson at one point.

Any additional comments?

A good book that is well written and performed. It was worth the listen with it's plot twists and multiple characters to keep you guessing. Considered a YA book, but I think is good for anyone that enjoys a mystery.

Not a teen novel

I really enjoyed This series. I listen in the car while in traffic. Very captivating, engaging story line. The reader does a nice job with the different characters voices. I did research on the author to find other books by her and saw that this book was categorized as a teen novel. It is a book about a teen vigilante who chases down a serial killer. There are a couple very violent graphic parts that I don't feel are suited for teens. They shocked me! I wasn't expecting something so violent in a teen book. Don't get me wrong, it was a great listen, but possibly not suited for young adults.

was left wanting more

The story started off pretty good but then shifted and some characters were introduced that didn't seem completely necessary. of course the one character introduced was so obvious that you could spot it a mile away. I don't give anything away but this one wad a little bit of a let down from the first book.

Great conclusion to the story!

Love it when the author finishes a story. Thanks for a great conclusion to a story with lots of twists and turns.

Amazed

I have just finished reading this amazing continuation of the first book. just looking forward for the next one.
