It’s up to her to stay strong and keep away from the weirdly possessive Jake and wait for her rescuers to sort out a plan. Mr Jake No-Good is back and is up to his tricks, but this time he’s managed to kidnap Beth into Hell. If you’re not sure whether to continue the series then I highly recommend that you do! Now, if you haven’t read Halo (book one) yet then leave now or be spoiled.Īfter the explosive events of book one, we dive back into trouble again and get to see the underworld. If you’re a fan of fantasy or books with angels in them then I definitely recommend checking this series out. It also has some really interesting character and the story itself was fabulous. This series has to be one of my favourites for its awesome representation of Heaven and Hell. I really enjoyed this as a sequel to Halo. Excuse me whilst I don’t sleep as I reach for book three. Omg, I’m just loving this series so much. I love how often I was surprised with how much I was enjoying things – and how things always end up being more serious or dramatic than you first anticipated.

Brooke left Hillcrest for good, and that was the last time I saw her.įourteen years later, I'm staring at her face on the television. Three months later, her father died, and Kai became the head of the Bennett Family. Her father said accident, but Brooke said murder. They were mafia, and Brooke's oldest brother was dead. He came to our school with their father, and that's when I learned what kind of family Brooke came from. Kai had eyes that pulled me in and a face that haunted my dreams. I became fascinated with her second-oldest brother. The only things she showed me were photographs of her brothers. She was fun and outgoing, but she kept quiet about her family. The wealthiest of the wealthy sent their kids to our boarding school, and Brooke Bennett had been at the top, though I never quite knew why. There were always whispers about my roommate at Hillcrest Academy. Worst of all, the general has been held in contempt for belittling his soldiers as ‘cowards’ who failed to win battles with those attacks. In addition, Hood has been accused of personal failings: stupidity, love-sickness, drunkenness, drug addiction of “attack addiction” that wasted his soldier’s lives. As Stephen points out, for one-hundred and fifty years General Hood has been castigated by Confederate apologists, newspapermen, historians, and novelists for his failures as a soldier and commander: For disputing with his leaders at Gettysburg, for losing Atlanta to Sherman’s Army, for his later defeats at Franklin and Nashville, for ‘destroying’ the Army of Tennessee. Stephen Hood has written a most interesting and compelling book, inspired by a filial duty to his ancestor, Confederate General John Bell Hood.
