Seventeen-year-old Nikki Youngblood is never going to be able to get away from the man who created her, Damon Vessler.  He needs her for his evil plans.

Damon has sent a Seeker after her and she escapes with Raven, while Mace and the other Haflings say behind and fight.

Nikki has a lot to think about and a lot of different beasts to fight.  Will she stay with Mace or become Raven’s girlfriend?  Will Damon turn her heart dark?  Will her heart change and affect her future with the Throne?

About the author- Heather Burch currently lives in Florida with her husband and sons.  She loves fiction and has learned that writing is her heart’s desire.

My thoughts- Avenger was full adventure from the beginning, but as it was part of a series and I didn’t read the second book, Guardian, I feel that I missed important information.  I would recommend reading books one and two before reading this book.

Although I haven’t read Guardian, I enjoyed reading this book.  There was a lot of action and just the right amount of romance.  I also enjoyed how God was mentioned, but it was in a way that would not prevent many different types of religious people from reading this book.

As with the other book, I had a little bit of trouble accepting the idea of Haflings, but I didn’t let it change what I thought of the story and it’s characters.

I would recommend Avenger to those who like action and adventure with a little romance included.
