Gregor and the Prophecy of Bane by Suzanne Collins
4.0
Just as good as the first book in the series. Fast paced and exciting, this one did not let me down. Looking forward to reading the rest of the series!
--------
Gregor and the Prophecy of Bane takes off a couple of months after Gregor the Overlander and we're immediately back into a very exciting story, this time focusing on another prophecy that has been made years ago. If you think things will get less awesome in the second book, you're wrong. It's just as exciting, fast paced and amazing as the first book in the series.
In this book we get to know Ares better. Ares is a bat, but despite being an animal, he has a very distinct personality, maybe even more than the other bats we've met so far. He is angry, and I'm not sure if I will ever end up liking him, despite what he did for Gregor in the first book. Gregor and Ares have to team up to be able to go on the quest that will help them fulfill the prophecy.
Collins shows once again that she is great at writing fast paced stories with lots of tension and adventure. Her writing has addictive qualities that make me just want to keep reading until I've flipped the very last page, leaving me hungry for more.
My overall rating: 4/5
Four big fat stars for the second installment in The Underland Chronicles! Fast paced and exciting, you're in for an incredible adventure once more.
