Darra's Review:
Reading Hunted is like a breath of fresh air. The moment you start to read this, you are shocked into a world of darkness, surprise, betrayal and revenge. Two stories are woven into one and all the characters have a place in this suspenseful plot. When I started this book, I don't even think I blinked once. There is so much substance to the story, there is no way I could explain the details of Danny's story. It even goes into specifics about his past. Which makes the story complete....for book #1.
Can't wait to read the rest of this story in the next book. I can't imagine anyone that would not like it. Well maybe the squeamish.
I rate this book a 4.4. Will keep you reading until your eyes bug out. :-)
Sunny's Review:
This book is GREAT!!! There is so much action and tension in this book. I read it in a day and could not put it down. I mean it was just INTENSE! I am not going to lie...I had dreams about being chased all night. It has been a long time since a book has showed up in my dreams. Of course it apparently wore me out b/c I was an hour and a half late for work...OOPS. I can't wait for the next book! I really don't want to give too much away. There are some plot twists which are like WTF! I might have a new author to work into my rotation...when I don't know but seriously I want to read the rest of his books!
I think I am going to give this book 4.4 stars out of 5. Go buy the book and be prepared to spend several heart racing hours in your favorite reading spot.
Buy The Book!!!!
