The Hunted Tribe: Book 1: Declaration of War by Roma Gray

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I really enjoyed reading The Hunted Tribe by Roma Gray to the point that I kept pausing to say to myself, wow, this is great. I actually do that when characters fascinate me, and I find seamless presentation, along with fabulous, professional writing as I did in The Hunted Tribe. The ending knocked me for a loop even though the pieces for it were there all along-- I just didn’t see them. Now, I want the next book--now! I want to go on with these characters. I feel like they were a part of my life, I can’t just leave them like that. Here’s a hint of the basic tale very distilled, because I don’t want to give anything away:

Sean’s grandmother reveals to him that they are members of an ancient tribe who long ago chose to trap and enslave the strong and deadly Grishla in order to steal its power for themselves. The tribe failed. The Grishla was furious and began mercilessly hunting them down, through the centuries. Sean learns he has a significant role to play in fighting the Grishla.

What looked like it was about to be a perfect summer at Grandma’s eating vegetarian foods laced with exotic spices and digging a treasure pit in the woods with a diverse collection of newfound friends quickly becomes a nightmare when Grandma finds a grisly bundle under Sean’s bed. Seriously, read this book-- I’m not going to tell you any more.
