THE FEROS
SUMMARY
James, Hayden, Sam, Emily and Lana are finally ready to join
the League of Heroes. Their new powers have made them stronger than ever
(Hayden has perfected some particularly useful tricks for doing housework from
the sofa), and the friends even gave themselves a name: the Feros. But as their
induction into the League approaches, they are ambushed and arrested by a group
of rogue Heroes. The only one who can clear their name is the League’s leader,
Thunderbolt—but he’s gone missing. The Feros manage to escape capture, but with
Thunderbolt gone and several League members defecting, there is no one left to
trust.
Confident they can overcome anything together, the group’s security is shaken
when Emily is mysteriously abducted right out from under them. Have the Vindico
somehow managed to escape the impenetrable Perch? Or are they fighting a new
enemy that they can’t see? One thing they know for sure is that even Sam’s
telepathic detection has proven useless against this unknown foe. Without their
computer genius or their telepathic shield, how will the Feros ever find Emily
and keep themselves—and their families—safe?
REVIEW
Awesome superpowers. Check.
Nonstop action. Check.
Fun characters with witty dialog. Check.
A must buy book that anyone looking for an entertaining super
powered book. Check.
I’m usually a sucker for a superhero book, but even I have my
limits. If it doesn’t have strong relatable characters, the plot has holes, or
its just plain bad writing then even I wont like it.
Luckily, none of these problems happen in this book.
In fact besides the nonstop action (who doesn’t like to see
Hayden and James smash things), the strong characters were probably my favorite
part of the book. Hayden, Sam, James, Lana, and Emily are likable, relatable,
and strong willed protagonists. They will stop at nothing to protect each
other, even fighting the league itself. So when Emily is abducted, the team is
put to the test, fighting norms and supers alike in order to get her back.
In case you haven’t realized yet, I really liked The Feros. The Feros
is full of fun and relatable characters, nonstop action, and tons of super
powers. Not only that, but The Feros answers and confirms some of the questions
readers were left with in Vindico. Who actually started the League? Who else
has the ability to give super powers? Who is behind the dissension in the ranks
in the League? If you have no idea what I’m talking about at all (or don’t know
what the League is) then I’d recommend reading the first book in the series, The Vindico, before reading The Feros. But on the plus side The Vindico is a fun book that
readers will truly enjoy.
