popthebutterfly 's review for:
Chimera
by C.D. Bell
Rating: 4.5/5
Genre: YA Fantasy
Recommended Age: 15+ (werewolves, FBI, and... more werewolves! Oh MY! Also, some slightly mature content)
I receieved a free copy of this book courtesy of Chooseco! Thank you so much! All opinions are my own.
The forest is full of secrets.
And who knows them better than Nessa Kurland, a sixteen-year-old cross-country star with a secret of her own: she can transform at will into a werewolf, and her power grows stronger with every moon.
Nessa returns home from a run with her pack to find an FBI raid and the shocking news that her mother, Vivian, is being arrested for violations so serious she may be facing life in prison. What did Nessa's mother, a small-town vet tech, do to threaten Homeland Security? Vivian's secret past leads Nessa to discover there is more to her story than she ever imagined.
The wolves that are running through Tether's woods are not the same pack Nessa knew before. These are not all natural wolves. And they are breeding.
As the lines between science, nature, and magic fade into one another, nothing is as it appears. And the wolves are not the only creatures in the woods.
Nessa's transformation is only just beginning...
Filled with romance, tragedy, perseverance, and adventure, C. D. Bell's CHIMERA is a breathtaking continuation of Nessa's story, as she confronts the truth of who she is, where she comes from, and what she has to do to survive. - Amazon.com
I will say that I loved this book much more than the first one. The beginning starts off slow and right where we left off in the last book. However the story soon picks up and the reader is racing to the end with the main character. I liked how much more developed the main character became along with all of the other characters. I felt that the author made tremendous improvement between the first and second book in terms of writing, character development, plot development, and pacing. A+ in effort for the author!
I only had one complaint and it was how the book ended. There were so many unanswered questions and so it almost guarantees that I'll have to reread the series in the future and then read the final book in the triology.
Verdict: I thought this book was so much better than the first book and I thought this book did amazing to build tension and make the plot a thousand times more interesting then in the first book. Definitely a series you need to check out if you're looking for a werewolf book or a different kind of fantasy book altogether.
