The story immediately picks up where it left off in the first book " THE FALLEN " and picks up the pace as Chloe struggles to adapt to Brian's betrayal, being a feline, her friends, and the San Francisco pride. In this book we get to know more about the history of the Mai and The Order which provides valuable insight and answer some of the questions that cam up in the first book.
Chloe develops allot in this book because of the situations she finds herself in. She is forced to live with stranger (of her own king) for her own "protection" and has to learn the hard way who to trust, to communicate with her loved ones and worry about protecting them, battle over her feelings for both Brian and Alyec all while trying to learn how to use her "powers". Chloe is also a very relatable character because of her wittiness/sassy attitude, her insane amounts of loyalty and protectiveness toward her loved ones,discovering new astonishing secrets about her destiny and past, her desire to have a "normal" life, and her mood swings (which I can totally relate to). Chloe overall is just a bad ass character.
As for all of the "relationships" in this book (I put " because there are so many fake ones and soon to be ones that its hard to count them all) they either take their time developing *cough* Alyec and Chloe *cough* or stay the same like Amy and Paul or are simply awkward and complicated like Chloe and Brian. I really don't understand Chloe and Brian's relationship because on top of the fact that they are on opposing teams and have feelings for each other it is literally physically impossible and deadly for them to be together, but they still cant seem to stay away from each other for long. Is this true love? I don't know, but I will read the third book to see what happens.
I will say that the book are soooo not what I expected from watching the TV series. There are unique and different in almost every aspect which I am liking so far. If you where a fan of the show and want to know the REAL story of Chloe King I highly suggest picking these up, but with and open mind.
