Jett Landry: Urban Legend
Jett Landry: Urban Legend. Volume Two in the Jett Landry Saga. By Stephan Oak. Cover art by Micky Mitchell.
It’s been four years since The Fuse was lit.
Everything has changed.
Melinda is a first-year law student at Baylor. Jett Landry, still reeling from tragedy, leads a lonely existence in downtown Port City. Mike Krayton Sr. is the Regional Director for the Port City Region and right-hand man of the charismatic “Governor” of the new Texas Republic. Mike Krayton Jr. works for his father, managing the controversial Workfare program. Human Trafficking is out of control. Danger is everywhere and the new government ignores the problem.
Meanwhile, something strange is happening in the county north of Port City: A mysterious woman on a motorcycle is rescuing victims of a human trafficking ring. They say she comes out of nowhere and brings fury and vengeance to all those who try to stop her. No one knows who she is. Rumors are circulating all over Port City about the woman’s identity. Some say she’s a survivor of human trafficking, out for revenge. Others believe she belongs to a reclusive cult that lives deep in the woods. But there is another rumor about this mysterious hero; a rumor that involves the girl from Port City High who won all those karate tournaments several years ago. The Co-Valedictorian. The daughter of the infamous private detectives, Marcus Jackson and Ashley Garcia.
Jett Landry: Urban Legend is the second installment in the Jett Landry Saga. It’s the story of courage, friendship and sacrifice. It’s the story of corruption and evil. Urban Legend is the story of a new generation of heroes and the villains determined to take them down.

Great adventure
I didn’t read volume 1 of this series but I’d like to now. This was a great adventure with a lot of action. Many twists and turns keep you reading and wanting more. Can’t wait now for number 3.

Excellent!
I'll start with the fact that I have not read volume 1. Why? Because I had never heard of Jett Landry or author Stephen Oak until I entered a giveaway on Goodreads. I won,obviously, or I may not be writing this now.
Anyway, what a fabulous volume. Jett is a strong, young black woman fighting human trafficking with a dedicated team of helpers. It has some pain in it. Definitely has some inspiring moments. This will be a quick read because you won't put it down until your done or pass out from exhaustion (you know you've done it if you're a big reader). What's next...volume 1 & then forward to volume 3.

Oak pumps new life into familiar action thriller trope in his second Jett Landry Saga, featuring the troubled vigilante Jett Landry.
It’s been four years since Jett lost her parents, the pair of the infamous private detectives Marcus Jackson and his partner Ashley Garcia, to a shootout. Still reeling from tragedy, Jett leads a lonely existence in downtown Port City. When a lone vigilante begins to wreak havoc on human traffickers in the county north of Port City, Mike Krayton Sr., the Regional Director for the Port City Region and right-hand man of the charismatic “Governor” of the new Texas Republic, is convinced it is Jett, but taking the lone warrior down is not as easy as it seems.
Oak expertly builds tension, balancing Jett’s inner turmoil with her quest to clean the Port City of human traffickers. Oak’s steady escalation of the risks and personal tragedies that Jett faces, and her courage in the face of relentless harrowing circumstances along with her ability to outthink and outgun the scores of dangerous criminals on her trail, make her a memorable heroine.
The secondary characters, including Diana, Melinda, Mike among others are equally convincing. Blood-soaked battles add to the thrill, and the concrete plotting and precise prose keep readers flipping pages. The novel’s tone is dark and melancholy which suits Jett’s tragic circumstances.
Loaded on action as well as emotions, this swiftly-paced action thriller argues that even the most vicious battles with criminals are less harrowing than the struggles within the psyche.
This is a winner.

I didnt realize that this book was in a series so im not sure if im missing some growth from Book 1. I feel like the characters who where still living had little to no growth throughout the book.
