"You are missing out on something special if you haven\'t read The League!"
Syn was raised as a tech-thief which led to him uncovering a
truth that put his life in danger. Destroying the evidence
would have been a good solution but instead it has stayed
hidden and Syn has been on the run ever since. Now older and
wiser he is an assassin who doesn't let anyone threaten him. Shahara Dagan is a bounty hunter and most likely one of the
best in the universe. Syn is just another job, a way to make
money to keep her siblings alive. Unfortunately there is a
problem. It seems Syn is a close friend of her brother and
sister. He is a friend who has helped out them out on many
occasions. On one side she wants to bring the assassin in
and have him pay for his crimes but on the other hand she
knows she will be upsetting a lot of people close to her. So Shahara saves him and then both of their lives are on the
line. The only hope Shahara and Syn have is to find the
evidence he buried long ago. Running for their lives they
both stick close together and try and save each other from
being hunted down and killed. This second book in The League series surprised me as much
as Born of Night. After reading the first book I really
thought it was a fluke. I don't usually read Sci-Fi type
fantasy so this was just a one off? Now I believe it all
lies in the wonderful way Sherrilyn Kenyon writes. Born of Fire was as brilliant a story as Born of Night.
Great characters, good plot and nice twists that kept things
exciting. Adventure with just the right amount of romance
this story was both heartbreaking and heartwarming. I loved
it all. Now I am looking forward to curling up with the third book,
Born of Ice. Sherrilyn's Dark-Hunter series is certainly my
favourite series by this amazing author but The League is
better than the Dream-Hunters. Don't forget to check this
series out if you are a Kenyon fan. You are missing out on
something special if you haven't read The League!
