The First Blood #4
Zero Tolerance
When sixteen-year-old Raven Cartana leaves his underground home for the surface, his only goal is to join the Elite and create a safe place in the world for his species. As blood drinkers, the vamlure are despised and feared, but Raven intends to prove that bonds between the supernatural races and vamlure can be forged again. All he has to do is pass his Interview and join the Elite ranks.
Once an Elite, Raven isn’t prepared for all that follows. Besides the obvious need to find a blood source to sustain him, he also has to survive the Magic Users who hate him and the sun which threatens to blind him. And then there are the Threats, and Raven’s worth is put to the test when he’s the only one who can sense them.
With each ensuing attack, the Threats grow stronger. It’s up to Raven and his team to locate and stop the mastermind behind the attacks before disaster befalls them, but can a teenage Elite Captain succeed at the job?
Join Raven Cartana and other beloved characters in this enthralling prequel to the First Blood Trilogy. This book is set ten years before the start of First Blood. There are no spoilers for the series. It can be read as part of the series or as a standalone novel.

Zero tolerance offers insight into what made Raven the man that Koda knows. Like the others before it, I devoured it! Heather Karn has created an amazing group of characters the I just want to hang out with and battle Threats with.

I enjoyed the overall story. That said, I feel Raven is being hero worshipped a bit too much. The explanations and how amazing he is in everything he does, is overkill. The ending of the book was also a bit meh.
Don’t get me wrong - the author has built amazing characters with enough backstory that there could even be a novella for a few of them. I just feel that Raven’s character is not genuine enough.

Another fantastic read.
The characters were all amazing and I enjoyed reading and getting to know each character better.
The storyline was incredible. It was very well written and kept me turning the pages just to see what would happen next. I loved the action and edge of your seat suspense and I highly recommend this read.

Good
It was nice to learn more about Raven. It's interesting to see how much he and Koda have in common and how his grumpy personality came about.

I understand everybody every character wanting page time but I prefer my story in chronological order. This should have been book one in series.
