What am I?
Waking up drugged, confused, and blindfolded, a human teenager named Ghent Sparrow is kidnapped by Primes, half animal half human hybrids, after being suspected of being one himself. Brought to the Prime capital Kingdom, Ghent is offered a chance to represent humanity as the first human soldier in the Prime army.
Knowing there may be no world for him back in the United States as a hybrid, Ghent accepts the offer and is initiated into the Prime Liberation Force. He must battle the rigorous training from his wolf commander, being threatened by Evolutionaries, who seek to exterminate humanity, and learn his place in society as the bottom of the food chain which makes him question his humanity in a world of beasts.
There is a chance Ghent can learn of mysterious upbringing and find out just who, or what he truly is. To him this is worth risking everything- even if it means putting his life in danger.

I got this book on a whim. I've always been a fan of anthropomorphic stories and I was surprised this one had flown under my radar. I opened it up and found myself really enjoying the journey!
Ghent is a bit of a smart ass internally but he knows when to toe the line and not, you know, make situations generally worse for himself. He doesn't do stupid things (generally) for the sake of moving the plot along and he has true reactions to situations I think I'd also feel if given the circumstances.
The supporting characters, such as Lupine, are fun. You go through the book not quite understanding him and his motives. You assume he's gruff but you see this gentle side of him that he lets baaaarely creep out from time to time. You also see his training snap back into face, a personal shield to refrain from getting hurt I imagine.
Watching Lupine and Ghent grow, struggle, argue, train, etc has been the highlight of the book. The slow reveal of the other characters motivations and histories also help layer the story and evolve its complexities.
I'm currently on book 2 and I do hope the author continues the series. It's a fun read and any book I can put down and say is fun always gets five stars.
