Book 172: "Hunter" by Mercedes Lackey

Hunter by Mercedes Lackey is the first in the Hunter Series. It is set in a post-apocalyptic world where bridges have been created between our world and the world of the Faerie/supernatural world. In this world, the majority of citizens now live in protected cities while Hunters protect them from the perils of the creatures trying to attack the city.

This book was really good. It is well written and very creative. Of course the main character follows most YA characters in that she is exceptionally talented AND good. But overall the story is a pleasant mix of fantasy and dystopia. The book also touches on political ethics/ corruption; addiction to celebrity/ "reality" entertainment; and the importance of education/ access to information.

I haven't read the rest of the series yet, but I will most likely read the rest. So far, there are 3 books total, I'm not sure if the author plans for more.

Happy Reading!
