Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Sixteen-year-old Chloe King may seem like your average teenage girl. She skips class, fights with her Mom over petty things, and can at times crush on more than one guy at a time. However, Chloe has a secret. She's no typical teenager, like she wants you to believe. Instead, she is superhuman, possessing the abilities to see clearly in the dark without glasses or contact lenses, and scaling buildings. Not to mention that she enjoys leaping from rooftop to rooftop in the dead of night, while everyone else is in bed fast asleep. If it isn't obvious to you yet, it will be soon. For Chloe has the agility and instincts of a cat. Which makes her very special. As well as very wanted. For now the Order of the Tenth Blade is after Chloe. And they don't stop stalking someone with Chloe's abilities until they're dead.
As a huge fan of Celia Thomson's THE FALLEN, which was the first book in THE NINE LIVES OF CHLOE KING series, I absolutely knew that I couldn't miss THE STOLEN. To my surprise, I found it to be even better than the previous book in the series. Chloe is an interesting character, who is intelligent, quick-witted, and fun to read about. Her wacky friends - Paul and Amy - add a wonderful element to the story, giving the reader even more people to relate to, whether it's to Paul with his comic book obsession, or Amy with her love of crazy clothes. Overall this was a wonderful new addition to THE NINE LIVES OF CHLOE KING series. I am now eagerly awaiting the release of the third book THE CHOSEN.

She argues with her mother. She occasionally skips class. And she alternately crushes on two totally different boys. But Chloe King is by no means your typical teenager. The girl can scale buildings and see in the dark. Sometimes, at night, she even likes to leap from rooftop to rooftop. Yes, Chloe has the instincts and ability of a cat. And that makes her unique indeed. It also makes her a wanted woman. Because the Order of the Tenth Blade does not deal kindly with people like Chloe. It stalks them. Preys upon them. And wants many of them -- like Chloe, for instance -- dead.
