SUMMARY

What if the hottest guy in the world was hiding a nameless evil, and all he wanted was you? 

At the start of this heart-pounding new installment of the bestselling House of Night series, Zoey's friends have her back again and Stevie Rae and the red fledglings aren't Neferet's secrets any longer. But an unexpected danger has emerged. Neferet guards her powerful new consort, Kalona, and no one at the House of Night seems to understand the threat he poses. Kalona looks gorgeous, and he has the House of Night under his spell. A past life holds the key to breaking his rapidly spreading influence, but what if this past life shows Zoey secrets she doesn't want to hear and truths she can't face? 

On the run and holed up in Tulsa's Prohibition-era tunnels, Zoey and her gang must discover a way to deal with something that might bring them all down. Meanwhile, Zoey has a few other little problems. The red fledglings have cleaned up well - they've even managed to make the dark, creepy tunnels feel more like home - but are they really as friendly as they seem? On the boyfriend front, Zoey has a chance to make things right with super-hot ex-, Erik, but she can't stop thinking about Stark, the archer who died in her arms after one unforgettable night, and she is driven to try to save him from Neferet's sinister influence at all costs. Will anyone believe the power evil has to hide among us?

 
Have you ever read a series where each book hooked you more to it? That’s what House Of Night is doing to me. It’s filled with suspense, romance, mystery, adventure. It has everything that I love in the books. I seen few negative reviews of this books, but I don’t see why some people don’t like this book. I have read the first 5 books multiple times and love them. Hunted was more breath taking, filled with more suspense then Untamed seemed to be. At least that how it felt to me. Zoey fighting within evil in herself against this one. Against Kalona and against Stark, (In beginning) . Each chapter, each page had me wondering what she will have to face next. I don’t know how she managed go through so much, at 17. Despite the mistakes she made, I love Zoey. She has a lot of responsibilities, a lot of courage. I saw how much she had go through in hunted, but she didn’t give up but kept on going. 


Stark & Kalona : Of course I was happy to see Stark return in Hunted. I might not been too happy with him at start, but I had a feeling that Zoey wouldn’t stop at trying to save him. Before he became her warrior, I saw how much she liked him. Actually I believe that she might love him, maybe she just didn’t realize it yet. Way she looked at him, how she still wanted be around him, to save him. There seems something between two of them that she doesn’t have with Erik and Heath. I am hoping he’s the one she ends up with. Stark cares for her too, she’s reason he changed, for good. He loves her. I don’t think he would pledged to be her warrior if he didn’t. I’m eager to see how their relationship changes, now that he is a warrior, if their connection gets stronger. Now I know Kalona is supposed be bad guy but way Cast describes him and connection he has with Zoey kind of gives me mixed feelings for him. Part of me knows that he is evil but another part, thinks that maybe there is good somewhere in there. However I do hope Zoey can fight her attraction to him, otherwise it won’t end well. 


The descriptions, the emotions of characters in this book were amazing. I felt like I was there, besides Zoey when she got hurt, when she got taken to House of Night. There was always some twist, some suspense in the novel that I didn’t see coming. I am starting to dislike Erik though. I get that she hurt him, cheated on him before but it gives him no right to act like a jerk. I am actually hoping that Zoey isn’t going put up with that for long and dump him. She deserves better than him. Even Heath treats her better. The ending of course is craving for more. I want to pick up Tempted right away. I am curious to see what adventures, what obstacles they will face next. Who Zoey end up with and what secrets Stevie Rae is hiding. 

House Of Night a series worth checking out.
