thoroughly enjoyable take on alien abduction!
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.
As the new game Warden, Xrez must make sure the rules are followed and The Hunt makes a profit. It is, after all, his family's fortune. But somehow, this new Hunt has already broken a rule: no humans, and this Hunt is JUST humans. Esme finds herself, along with the others, on an alien planet, being hunted. The higher up the Game they get, the better their life will be when they get out. But they cannot go home. Xres keeps helping her, and she doesn't know why. Xres can't keep away from Esme, but he's there on false pretenses. When she finds out the truth, will she forgive him?
I thoroughly enjoyed this take on alien kidnapping.
I found Esme to be a strong woman, faced with a good deal of adversity. Being kidnapped will do that to ya! Xres, however, I found a bit of a wet blanket at times and he did grate on my nerves. I mean, what did he expect Esme to do when she discovered his betrayal, hmm??
I did like the way everything played out in the end, though.
It's steamy and smexy in places, and dark and deadly in others. I loved the supporting cast!
Now, when I looked wherever I looked, I couldn't see any others. I've now discovered there are 5 books in this series and I really hope I can get my hands on them! I was intrigued as to who might be next, and I'm so glad. The rest of the series is about the others in this Hunt and the one female who is already in Level Three.

AT (1676 KP) rated Nabari No Ou Book 2 in Books
Sep 2, 2018 (Updated Sep 3, 2018)
Book 2 of the Nabari No Ou series begins to dive further into the actual plot. You get background information about a few of the main characters, as well. The pace is about the same as Book 1. The story actually moves forward in this book, and you find out more about what the secret art is, and why people are trying to hunt it down.

Good one
Except for the reason for the hunt, this story and it's premise were entertaining. This one is definitely NOT for the kids. The acting was good and the effects/ action were really good. A lot of dark humor throughout it, too. Somewhat predictable but it played out well. Great movie for those of you into violence and a twisted storyline. Worth a watch!

Quite fun but badly dated
Seeing Joanna Lumley kicking ass as Purdey was great but Gareth Hunt as Mike Gambit was supposed to offer some eye candy for the ladies didn't really suit. He was better in those coffee adverts from the late 80s lol.
Still a bit tongue in cheek like the originals but didn't quite have the same magic
