Read my review here...
Or here....
Holy smokes, this book went from 0 to 60 in less than 2 pages and I loved it. Packed with non-stop action, this book had my heart rate going like I was the one running instead of the characters.
Action, suspense, and mind control?
Runner has a supernatural element that blended flawlessly into the storyline. I love paranormal and supernatural books so this was an added bonus. The supernatural element is so perfectly placed, even people who normally don’t take a walk down the supernatural side, will enjoy the storyline.
It’s good to know a super secret ex military man when you are on the run.
We have an ex-military former government agent that can fight the bad guys while maintaining a soft side for the girl he is trying to save.
Action, suspense, plus a storyline, oh my!
It has a good storyline made even better by two strong lead characters. One an adult, the other a child. One with no past, running from danger. The other with a past, running to forget. I loved Sam and Rachel. In the beginning you think Sam is saving Rachel but really, before Rachel came into Sam’s life, Sam wasn’t living. He was going through the motions. The story was simply suspense filled. The idea that the government could use people as weapons and then kill them off without a second thought is not so far fetched. The bad guys were icky bad, and the action was plenty.
The story itself is told from multiple points of view and it works effectively. I loved the pace, characters, and the ending. Definitely look forward to more in this series.
