A visitor from her past arrives in town and Alex must quickly learn who she can trust. When she discovers the truth about her own destiny, Alex must find a way to accept it and even more importantly, a way to survive.
My Review: The Shadows by Hunter J. Keane is a refreshingly unique novel. A fight between good and evil rests upon the shoulders of Warriors, and this story features a young teen girl named Alex. Alex's life is turned upside down where her and her family are uprooted from their home in the middle of the night and forced to move for their own protection- having to change their looks, names, and identity, and forced to keep secrets. But their secret, along with others, are unraveled and lives are put in danger.
The Shadows is a fantastic novel. The characters are likeable and endearing. The story is fun, fast-paced, and entertaining. This novel is definitely worth the time to read. I can not wait to see what will happen in the next installment of this trilogy. 4/5 STARS
