Fresh Fiction Review

HIDDEN
Sophie Jordan

Reviewed by Andrea Duncan
Posted September 9, 2012

Young Adult Paranormal

Jacinda had pushed off her bonding with the "prince" of the pride, Cassian, before ever meeting the love of her life, Will, a human and worse a hunter. They had planned to run away, but that ended in disaster. Miriam, Cassian's sister, was captured by the enkros. Jacinda didn't know what she was getting into when she set out to rescue Miriam.

Ever since she was little, Jacinda had been told about the enkros. Nobody knows what exactly they do because nobody has ever survived being captured by them and able to tell the tale. Jacinda wants to rescue Miriam. The only way for her to rescue Miriam is to get herself captured by the enkros. There's no guarantee that she will make it out alive. But what she never could have seen is that escaping is only the beginning.

HIDDEN is the perfect end to a trilogy. It is beautifully written and you can get into Jacinda's head. I connected with her really well, I kept trying to imagine being in her position. I don't know if I would ever have the guts that she has. Ms. Jordan created the perfect heroine for an amazing series.

If you are going to read the Firelight trilogy, I would suggest that you read all of the books. If you wanted, you could start with the final book. I think that if you started with the final book, you would be a little confused, and you wouldn't get all of the action that all of the books have. While reading there were a lot of twists and turns that kept me turning pages. I wish that wouldn't have stopped, but all great books have to end at some time.

SUMMARY

This conclusion to the Firelight trilogy continues the conflict between a dragon-girl and those who hunt her kind. Jacinda is a draki, a being that can morph from human form into a fire-breathing, flying dragonlike creature. She has her own society but wants to escape it with her human boyfriend, Will, who comes from a family that hunts the draki. This installment begins with Jacinda intentionally caught and imprisoned in an underground facility in which rather nasty scientists do research on draki. She plots with Will and her enforced mate, Cassian, to escape. Once the attack commences, exciting scenes ensue as the group fights their way out with a new, dangerous draki in tow. Jordan keeps the focus mostly on action even as she weaves in the forbidden-romance elements required by this genre, although the romantic conflict was mostly resolved in the previous installment. Plenty of rivalries among Jacinda and other draki spice things up. Two new characters, Deghan, the long- imprisoned draki, and little Lia appeal, although the story allows Lia's fate to dangle unresolved. Chase scenes, near- captures and a late-game betrayal or two keep the narrative moving. Except for the subplot regarding Lia, everything comes to an ending that will satisfy readers. New readers would best start with the beginning of the trilogy.
