But Mare finds herself on a deadly path, at risk of becoming exactly the kind of monster she is trying to defeat. Will she shatter under the weight of the lives that are the cost of rebellion?

Mare and her comrades are scouring the globe for more newbloods. I feel like she and Cal are like Charles and Eric. However, unlike <i>X-Men: First Class<\/i>, there&#8217;s a villain coming behind her and trying to kill them before she can get to them. This adds a lot of tension, especially when Mare is becoming afraid that she&#8217;s creating an army just like the one she wants to defeat.<\/span><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"> <\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"600\" data-original-width=\"600\" height=\"320\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/victoriagracehowell.com\/staging\/6258\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/8423b178-df1a-4eba-8764-7ceb9a17919d.jpg._CB300380642_.jpg?resize=320%2C320\" width=\"320\" \/><\/div>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">The Characters:<\/span> Mare definitely has her share of development. She&#8217;s still recovering from Maven&#8217;s horrible betrayal and this haunts her nearly every waking moment, especially when Maven keeps trying to creep into her life and foil all of her good efforts. I&#8217;m really enjoying her as a character.<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\">I also really like all of the newblood characters coming in, though my least favorite has to be Cameron.

I love how the newblood powers are basically enhanced versions of silverblood powers. Nix has an ability like stoneskin but his skin doesn&#8217;t need to look like stone.

She&#8217;s always thought very lowly of herself, like she&#8217;s the bottom of the barrel, but now she&#8217;s growing to love herself and that&#8217;s an important thing.<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<span style=\"font-family: &quot;georgia&quot; , &quot;times new roman&quot; , serif;\"><span style=\"font-size: large;\">Content Cautions:<\/span> The content definitely jumps in this book. Some of the imagery was a bit disturbing in areas. There is a dead and decayed infant, a horribly mangled lightning-scorched body, and a severed head. Some blood and torture. There&#8217;s an instance of premarital sex. D*** is used six times, bi***h three times, ba****d three times, h*** twice, and a *** three times.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: large;\">What We Can Take Away For Our Writing:<\/span><br \/><b>1.) A Villain from a Distance &#8211;&nbsp;<\/b> Maven doesn&#8217;t have much of a physical presence in this book, but there is always a reminder that he&#8217;s around and he is a problem.
