#71: Rogue by Julie Kagawa

Ember Hill left the dragon organization Talon to take her chances with rebel dragon Cobalt and his crew of rogues. But Ember can't forget the sacrifice made for her by the human boy who could have killed her—Garret Xavier Sebastian, a soldier of the dragonslaying Order of St. George, the boy who saved her from a Talon assassin, knowing that by doing so, he'd signed his own death warrant. 

Determined to save Garret from execution, Ember must convince Cobalt to help her break into the Order's headquarters. With assassins after them and Ember's own brother helping Talon with the hunt, the rogues find an unexpected ally in Garret and a new perspective on the underground battle between Talon and St. George. 

A reckoning is brewing and the secrets hidden by both sides are shocking and deadly. Soon Ember must decide: Should she retreat to fight another day…or start an all-out war?

REVIEW:
Exciting!
This book from start to finish was full of adventure and edgy drama. I liked how fast-paced this second book in the series was compared to the first. The first book feels more like an intro into the story now.
Ember is a more likable character now too. She was way too naive in the first book, and in this book, the naivety seems gone. She is smart, strong and fearless. I like that in a lead character, male or female. I just wish she'd forget about Garrett and get with Cobalt already. The chemistry between them is heavy and unmistakable. 
From the sounds of the goings on in this book, the next book, Solider, sounds equally exciting. Hunting down a traitor spells suspense, action and adventure to me so I can't wait. I just hope it doesn't disappoint!

4.5/5

REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
