I Loved this Series!

I loved this series and reccomend it highly! I wish it would have gone on longer. It is very good, and unique. Definitely worth reading.

Chloe Returns...

When 16-year-old Chloe King accepted the fact that she was the reciprocant of being half cat, half human, she never knew that it would entail so much hard work. But now, down to her eighth life, she's finally realizing where she belongs: at home with her Mom, instead of among her people, The Mai. Now, after a stint of living with The Mai for weeks on end, she is back at school, among normal humans, trying to catch up in her classes, figure out how to speak Mai for her formal introduction. Everything is hectic, but going smoothly, until Chloe discovers Brian, her close friend, and somewhat boyfriend - without the whole kissing thing. Brian is slowly bleeding to death in an alley, and that's when Chloe realizes for sure that the bloodshed between her people, The Mai, and Brian's people, The Tenth Blade, is not over. So Chloe decides to do the only thing she can: accept her destiny, the way it has been handed to her, and take control of the situation. I have adored THE NINE LIVES OF CHLOE KING series since book one, when we were first introduced to the sometimes rebellious, hard-headed Chloe King, and her close pals, Amy and Paul, and throughout the CHLOE...volumes, my love for the series has only grown. Fans of the previous Chloe King novels will love reading about her newest, and possibly greatest, adventure yet, and will find themselves grappling for the next book in the series - if another book is released.

Rox my sox!

After realizing Chloe has super cat powers, she finds out that she is the leader of a cat cult. And is wished to lead the in or out of war. Will Chloe choose her destiny or her fate?

fantastic!!!

i'd waited for months for this book to come out, and when it did, i was not disappointed in the least. it was one of the best ones. i have no complaints to say about it. if you want a good, fun book that keeps you in suspense, read this book!also, sadly, i have to say that i don't think that fearless is a good series to read. but, frankly, if you like those books where the main character is selfish, and only cares about themself, i suggest you read them. if you absolutely have to read them, i suggest reading books 1-18 because you're not quite to the point where you feel like jumping through the book, and shooting gaia(the main character of the series) in her head.

Another Catwoman?

Chloe King is a girl with cat-like powers (sounds familiar???) that also includes having 9 lives. As part of an ancient European species called The Mai, she is now a target of an organization called The Order of the Tenth Blade, out to destroy the Mais. Good pacing, but the cat woman idea has already been played out. Not the best super power books for teens, but alright. For those who like super power teen books like Buffy, this is recommended along with Queen B Superheroine and Fearless.
