The Traitor

But saving one of their own means battling a onetime teammate, as Jack has turned traitor and joined forces with Amash and his men.

At the same time, the clan must work with the Alpha Team to act before the Chasqui can put their plan to destroy the city of Arequipa into motion. And when Taylor makes a bold yet dangerous move to save her sister, the urgency climbs even higher.

With so many lives at stake, the Electroclan has no time to waste, and no room for error as they take on this latest growing threat.

Reviews

[Sophie Bonfim]

I personally really liked the book and its plot and key of events, however, there were points in the book where all they were doing was preparing and planning for battle, and this typically lasted around 1-2 chapters so I found it very boring and it was really hard to read on those parts, and I couldn't concentrate when reading those parts and I wasn't really paying attention so when it came time for the actual battle it was a little confusing because things that I did not remember from earlier chapters would come up and it would be really hard to make sense of it. Also Ostin in the book I found very annoying because he would say useless facts which would make the periods of planning before battle even more confusing. It was also very confusing because there are 10+ characters with many different powers and there were many different times when they split up such as in the beginning when some when to the caves and others when like around and also there were many different instances when people were speaking spanish which make

I really liked this book. It was hard to put down. The character outline and backstory is believable in how they react to situations. It's a little darker, maybe because there is more death in this book. I look forward to the last installment of this series because the cliffhanger was motivated by revenge. I wouldn't read this book out of sequence of the series; you might not understand what's going on. So in that, I definitely encourage you to read this whole series in it's entirety.

I was skeptical about this book because I thought the series ended and this was the author’s attempt to resurrect an old series (which it kind of is), but when you have a great story teller like Richard Paul Evan’s, he can make it work. This book has all the same things you loved about the series, interesting characters, great storyline and tons of action. Try it, you won’t be disappointed.
