Rush of Blood

by Heather Shahan

With Commander Alex Franklin at their lead, The Guardia continues to spin the tale for the citizens of Trinity that the dangerous mutant monsters have destroyed their prison and set their sights on the peaceful commoners. After escaping The Compound and facing the wary public, Peony and her fellow elementalists must decide how far they are willing to go to save their people.

Joining forces with old friends long thought dead, Anza and Eli fight to gain a foothold and sway public opinion. Should they make change peacefully and hope that minds can be changed or accept the harsh reality that genocidal leaders are too far gone? Others must choose for themselves whether keeping their element is worth the fight for survival.Continuing the fight,

Rush of Blood questions what we’re truly capable of when we’re pushed to our limits.

I really enjoyed this book. It is easy to pick up, having knowledge of the first one or not. It is a real page turner! The characters develop more and you really get engaged in the world. I highly recommend Rush of Blood and its predecessor, Burn the Ashes. The themes can be a bit dark, but Heather does a really good job of writing the story and softening these darker themes. Peony is realistic and someone young girls can look up to. She makes choices that are both best for herself and those around her, making her an independent force to be reckoned with.

I highly recommend these books.
