Review: Skyhunter

Skyhunter Skyhunter by Marie Lu
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Talin is part of a fighting force that helps defend the last free nation of the world.  Because she is a refugee, she understands the terrible things the Federation has done to nation after nation.  Soon after losing her partner, she steps up and defends a prisoner that has been brought to Mara’s capital.  She doesn’t know who he is and what secrets he might have, but he is now her partner and her responsibility.  Who is this mysterious prisoner?  What risks will Talin need to take to defend her homeland?

 

Skyhunter is the first book in a new science fiction series.  Since the story takes place in the middle of a war, there are many fight scenes and hard choices to make.  Talin is a fierce fighter, yet no one is perfect and she must come to terms with what she is willing to do to save the ones she loves.  Lu left us with a satisfactory ending instead of a cliffhanger, but readers will still be looking for the next installment when it is released.  I recommend Skyhunter to everyone who wants to read about a strong protagonist fighting for what she believes in.
