Review
I received Hunter in return for an honest review as part
of the tour hosted by I Read Book Tours. Hunter is the second installment in
Guy Erma and the Son of Empire. This book continues where the first book left
off Teodor is still missing his mother suspects someone in the dome has him but
her searches haven’t turned anything up yet. When Karl the telepathic
shapeshifter offers to find her son it’s a choice she can’t pass up and it
doesn’t hurt that she finds him attractive either. As the two form an unlikely
connect that should the empire know it would change everything.
Teodor is being held hostage by the battle Borgs who are
controlled by Chart who’s his mother’s rival for the dome debate. Guy has been
working hard for the Magnolia weekend helping with the fashion houses as a
model, selling fruit from a stand. Guy’s whole dream is to join the Dome elite
but without parents that’s next to impossible he’s hoping he might be able to
prove to Chart that he has what it takes. When he sees what could be Teodor being
held captive he keeps quiet, only to have it confirmed by Des one of the Dome
Elite who have just returned. Will Karl find Teodor before it’s too late? What
about Guy will he make it into the Dome Elite?
In the first book we had a lot more of Teodor’s point of
view this one is more about Guy. We also have more of Karl as well as Sayginn
who is Teodor’s mother. I found it interesting to see her point of view how she
worries about bringing her son back as well as being in charge with the dome
debate looming as well as the goran race. I like Sayginn she may have some
issues but when it matters she cares for her son, and her chemistry with Karl
is interesting. I’m curious to see how it will all play in next book with these
two I see a powerful alliance.
I enjoyed Kidnap the first book in the series and have
been looking forward to reading Hunter I had to see what was going to happen
next to Teodor and Guy. I like the sci fi concept it’s fascinating to see how
it’s all playing out in a world far away. I have to admit the giant goran are
maybe my favorite part because the idea of riding a giant cat in a race is just
so unique. I like the characters with the multiple points if view we are giving
and insight into what’s going on with more than just Teodor and Guy. The characters
are easy to connect in this book I really liked Sayginn’s and Karls story that’s
unfolding in the background of finding Teodor. I kind of missed that we didn’t
have a lot of Teodor but it makes since she he was locked up for part of it.
Hunter is a fast packed action packed sci fi novel that flows from start to
finish. I enjoyed Hunter it’s a great addition to the series and works well as
the next installment. I can’t wait for the third installment to see how it all
ends.
