However, I will tell you why I really enjoyed both books in the Dark Elite series. I am a huge fan of paranormal romance and action novels - vampires, werewolves, witches, etc... if it falls in one of these categories, then I'm interested in reading it. This includes anything from young adult to more r-rated novels - anything goes. However, as I've expanded my love of reading this genre, I've discovered there are just as many horrible writers as there are great ones in this genre. I have been a fan of Chloe Neill's Chicagoland vampire series for quite some time - in fact, it is definitely one of my favorite series in the genre! (Although those books definitely fall in the more adult category). So earlier this year, I decided to give this young adult series a try, and once again, I was not disappointed. While many paranormal books have similar or overlapping themes, I enjoyed Neill's twist on the world of magic in this series. Also, I appreciate that these novels are truly age appropriate for young adults. I have read a few series before that contained very detailed intimate scenes between high school students in books being billed as appropriate for middle and high school aged readers. While I personally enjoy my fair share of juicy scenes, I wouldn't want my daughter reading them one day when she hits middle school age. Therefore, I appreciate Neill's ability to mix innocent age-appropriate romance and flirtations in with the action of these novels' plot. Yet, while these books are certainly age appropriate for young adults, they are not written in a flighty high school tone which would turn off adults. On the contrary, I find a lot of adults (like myself) still really enjoy young adult fiction, and if that's the case, you will not be disappointed in this series. Now if you like a little more spice in your novels... then definitely check out her Chicagoland vampire series! Also, please note this review applies to both the first and second book in the Dark Elite series (Firespell and Hexbound) so I will be posting the same review under both titles. I do recommend reading the stories in book order (i.e. Firespell then Hexbound). Review: A charming tale of magic and the paranormal - There's never a dull moment at St. Sophia's. Ever since Lily Parker arrived at the Chicago boarding school she has been going nonstop. From discovering her suite-mate Scout's secret about being an Adept, one who fights against the Dark Elite to keep the people of Chicago safe, to finding out that she is also an Adept with the power to wield firespell, her arrival in Chicago has been anything but boring. Only weeks since rescuing Scout from the Reapers, a new threat has arisen. This one comes in the form of hideous creatures with fangs and claws that have been leaving slime trails in the tunnels leading to St. Sophia's. Still no closer to discovering the truth about Lily's parents and what they're really working on, she, Scout and the other Adepts in Enclave Three manage to get caught in the middle of vampire territorial wars as they try to uncover the source of these slimy new beings. To top it all off, Sebastian Born, the Reaper who activated Lily's firespell, is following her. And let's not forget Veronica and her brat pack who just can't seem to mind their own business. With Scout still recovering from her abduction by the Reapers and Lily still not in control of her firespell power, will they be able to figure out and defeat whoever is behind this? With the help of some new friends from Enclave Two and a few surprising allies, it may just be possible. *** Hexbound is the second book in the Dark Elite series and picks up the story just weeks after the events that occurred in Firespell. Lily Parker is still working with the other Adepts to ensure that the Reapers do not harm the innocent by taking their life force to sustain themselves, when she, Scout, Jason and Michael encounter some never-before-seen creatures in the tunnels connecting to St. Sophia's. In their attempt to get more information about what these disgusting and slimy beings are, who created them and why they are trying to get into the school, they will have to turn enemies into allies and put their trust in someone who should not be trusted. Hexbound, like Firespell, is another delightful and quick read. The banter between Lily and Scout makes this story. If anything, Lily is even more sarcastic and clever in this book than in the first and her humorous interactions with Scout continue to entertain throughout the story. Author Chloe Neill has introduced a few new characters with some different powers, of which Detroit, the petite, blond, punk, techie machinist from Enclave Two, is the most interesting. The author has also made the vampires of Chicago a major player in this story, adding in yet another element to this world. In Hexbound, we do see less of the Reapers, however, aside from Sebastian Born. And, although Veronica and her snooty friends make an appearance, there is less of a focus on them, too. This second book in the series moves the plot forward and the ending wraps up nicely, although there are plenty of questions that still remain open from the first book and a few new questions that have been introduced in Hexbound. Another book in the series is planned which will hopefully explore these answers further. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | 0451230795 | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,090,266 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #188 in Teen & Young Adult Paranormal & Urban Fantasy #386 in Teen & Young Adult Horror #1,224 in Teen & Young Adult Contemporary Fantasy | | Book 2 of 3 | Dark Elite | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 4.3 out of 5 stars (219) | | Dimensions | 4.21 x 0.67 x 6.69 inches | | Grade level | 7 - 9 | | ISBN-10 | 9780451230799 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0451230799 | | Item Weight | 5.2 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 256 pages | | Publication date | January 4, 2011 | | Publisher | Berkley | | Reading age | 14 - 17 years | ## Images ![Hexbound (Dark Elite, Book 2) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61hxJKcedsL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Why I love this series... *by J***R on July 19, 2011* I don't like to recap a novel's plot in a review because I feel like the book description does a pretty good job of teasing the story in most instances.
