Revenge is easy, but justice is worth fighting for…
Kenna is tired of being lied to—and hunted by the very allies she once trusted. Unearthing the dark secrets of the superhero world has not only endangered her life, now her boyfriend faces execution for crimes he didn't commit and her mother is being held captive in a secret governmental prison.
Kenna is determined to stand up for what's right and save those she loves from unspeakable fates. It's time for the betrayal to end. It's time for the real criminals to face justice.
But the truth is even more terrifying than Kenna could imagine. A conspiracy threatens the fate of heroes, villains, and all of humanity. If Kenna's going to survive, she must draw on her deepest strength: her resilience. Because when Kenna's pushed to the limit, she doesn't break down. She fights back.
I received a copy of this book through the Goodreads First Reads giveaway program. This is my honest review.
This is the second book in a series and I have not read the first one, but I still felt like I mostly had a handle on what was going on in this world. I felt like I basically understood the super powers and the overall political climate.
The characters in this book felt like true teenagers to an extent, although the way they paired off with almost no drama felt a bit unrealistic to me (maybe because I didn't read book 1). Seriously though, four romantic pairs in a group of 10 teenagers just isn't natural.
This book was really big on the action, at times feeling like we were just moving from one action sequence to the next. This really propelled the story along quickly, which made the book a fast read for me.
Overall I give Relentless 4.0732 out of 5 stars because it was a largely enjoyable read. - Katie
