This book is the best book ever!!

Fearless is an amazing story for any teenage girl. It is about a girl born without the fear gene, whose father trained her since she was little to be a fantastic fighter. She enjoys walking through Central Park of New York City, just to prove thugs wrong who think they can attack innocent teenage girls. The story has humor with her witty thoughts about what is going on in her head, along with what is going on in other character's heads. There is also a person who broke the wall she built around her heart, Ed, her new best friend. Then there is Sam, who likes/hates her, and who also happens to be going out with Gaia's enemy. I love this book because it is action-packed, with a little romance, but it also relates a lot with me, and probably other teenagers as well. She deals with trying to fit in, starting a new school, being self concious about the way you look, and thinks about a lot of the other popular issues with teenagers. The story isn't too believable when you think about it, but while you read it, you believe she has no fear, and it is just a part of her life. I enjoy thinking about all the different things that I would do or would happen to me if I had no fear as well.

A girl born without the fear gene

Gaia Moore is just a normal teenage girl...well, as normal as a teenage girl can be when she knows no fear, is a master in karate, kick-boxing, and many other forms of defense. She lives with George and Ella, her two legal guardians, because her father abandoned her when her mother was murdered. She is fluent in many languages. She goes around Washington Square Park to play chess like a master--and to go around looking for trouble. So that pretty much crosses the line separating normal and...well, not. Not paying any attention to the warnings about going to the park after dark, she walks right through, pausing to look through her bag, giving slashers a chance to come after her, and then attacks with the force of three giant, 7-foot ninja warriors. And that's basically what the slasher tells his not-yet girlfriend, when she sees his bruises. But when she identifies the man who severely wounded a girl from school, and his gang starts trying to kill her, her confidence starts to dim a little bit, because she believes that soon, they will succeed. This book was a great start to the series. The end was so cliffhanging that I couldn't wait to read book #2: Sam. I recommend this book for older fans of Replica by Marilyn Kaye, and all action-packed books.

One of the Best Teen Books out there!

This is probably one of the best teen series books I've ever read. It is written in many different POV's giving you different perspectives of everything. This series tackles real life issues, living in New York. It's not some sappy, corny novel. It is exciting, intense, witty, adventurous, and even a little romance is put in. I'd reccommend trying to buy as many of the books in the series at once, because once you finish reading one, your dying to know what happens in the next book. Francine Pascal has done a wonderful job writing these books. They are a big change from her normal Sweet Valley books. Put this book in your shopping cart now, and don't forget to get the rest too! A new book comes out every month!

Surpassed expectations

When I was younger (I'm 17), I was a big fan of Pascal's SVH series. I eventually outgrew them, but recently I needed an easy read for my boring classes, and this happened the be the first book I saw. The premise of a girl born w/o the fear gene seemed interesting, so I bought it. Once I began, though, I could *not* put it down! This is obviously aimed for an older audience, and it has everything: clever writing, wit, emotion, romance...everything you could want from a book. Also, I'm an obsessed fan of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and I found this to be very similar in writing style and theme. I would completely recommend Fearless, and I'll probably recommend the next two I just bought. I'm even using the very beginning "journal entry" for an acting class monologue. The only complaint I have is that it wasn't long enough!

It's the best book I've ever read!

After reading Barbara Steiner's Fearless, I was already waiting for her next book to come out. It was so interesting, I could hardly put it down. Fearless is a book about a girl named Gaia and she was born with out the fear gene. She got into all sorts of trouble, such as fights in the streets and is grounded everyday by her parents. Gaia is the most intelligent girl I've ever read about. She is smart in more ways than one. I mean, she is good at her school work and she seems to know a lot about people. Reading about her made this book even more interesting. If you like exciting fiction books, then I would recommend the book Fearless.
