Elite

The Hunter Series, Book 2

De: Mercedes Lackey

Narrado por: Amy Landon

Hunting monsters was supposed to be the hard part. When Joy came to Apex City, all she cared about was protecting the Cits from the dangers lurking outside protective barriers. She understood the need for the secrecy surrounding her hunts - no need to cause a panic by announcing just how real of a threat the Othersiders pose.

But as she quickly discovered, the conspiracies of the city run much deeper. And a dangerous new covert mission leaves Joy with a target on her back once more. Under the orders of her uncle, the city's prefect, Joy begins patrolling the abandoned tunnels and storm sewers under Apex Center. With her large pack of magical hounds, she can fight the monsters breaking through the barriers with the strength of three hunters. Then she starts finding bodies. Psimons are turning up dead in the bowels of the city, with no apparent injury. Reporting the incidents makes Joy the uncomfortable object of PsiCorps' scrutiny, and the organization appears more interested in keeping her quiet than investigating. Joy's situation grows more precarious, and her relationship with her Psimon boyfriend, Josh, begins to fray. Long-held tensions between PsiCorps and the Hunters seem to be reaching a breaking point. While infighting threatens the stability of Apex City, Othersider forces are gaining strength and momentum outside the borders. Joy desperately seeks answers to figure out who her real enemies are before she and everyone she cares about are locked into an all-out war.

Awesome book

Another great book in this series and I can not wait for the next one.

loved it

was compelled by the futuristic post apocalyptic context and the mix of fantasy, magic, and the hounds!

Fun and entertaining

I loved the continued story line with the hound and magical abilities. The storyline was a little dragged out inside the walls. I was definitely satisfied with the majority of the other sider's encounters.

Great story!!!!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. At first I didn't like the reader, but in this second book I liked having the same reader bc I was used to her voice.

The story was developed very well and the characters that died were important enough to make me have an emotional response, but not so important that I was upset at the author. I liked the action, adventure, and strategy this story involved. It was unpredictable and appeals to any age group. Definitely would recommend.

As good as book 1

I love this book as much as I love the other two it’s one of my favorite Of all of them

Awesome. Just Awesome

I absolutely loved it. I loved the narration, the main character and her way of thinking, the story, the fantasy aspects. I loved it all. If you're into fantasy things or liked Hunger Games, give this series a try!

Disappointed

I am a huge fantasy fiction person. The first book drew me in checks almost all the box’s for what I enjoy and the story seems to progress nicely with character development.Elite though we don’t really see any personal growth joy is still the same self pity dim witted girl even though months have passed and she has taken on obstacles above her skill. We don’t get any sense of self courage and confidence she’s still a the doubting timid girl from the mountains. It’s also frustrating that certain key things don’t get explained or looked into any further by joy and she just goes back to her day to day. I plan on reading book three but I don’t have high hopes.

Loved this sequel!

Very good continuation of hunter. I definitely recommend this book. I love the mystery of the folk mage.

Excellent!

Enjoyed the second of the series and looking forward to the next. Great story and narration.

Love this story

It is great. Love the intelligent, selfless, powerful heroin. Her personality is one for teens and tweens to aspire to!!
