Between Frost and Fury

by Chani Lynn Feener

Overview

Delaney might have done her job a little TOO well...and now her life has once again been turned upside down by aliens, this time by a deadly (and devastatingly handsome) alien prince in this explosive second installment of Chani Lynn Feener's The Xenith Trilogy.

Delaney has been kidnapped by aliens. Again. After only a month back on Earth with her hot new alien boyfriend Ruckus, the deadly and devastatingly handsome prince Trystan has dragged her right back to his planet.

While some girls may dream of winning a prince’s heart, Delaney just wishes this one would leave her alone. Instead, she finds herself at the center of both a tense political battle between two alien kingdoms and Trystan’s romantic attentions, both of which are absolutely ruining the life she’s built on Earth. Not to mention the fact that she’s about to be crowned queen of a planet she’s barely even visited. Just another day in the life of an ordinary human girl.

Readers won’t want to miss Between Frost and Fury, the compelling, fast-paced sequel to Chani Lynn Feener’s Amid Stars and Darkness.

From the Publisher

Gr 9 Up—This sequel picks up exactly where Amid Stars and Darkness left of—with Delaney's kidnapping. Discovering Zane Trystan, prince of the Kint, is her captor, she soon realizes that it will be a very long time before she sees home again. She tries to stay in contact with an imprisoned Ruckus—her boyfriend—and escape Trystan's advances, unaware that the king of the Kint is staging a plot that could endanger all of their homes. Feener expands the world of Xenith and more time is given to Delaney and Trystan's backstories, which will help readers better understand their motivations. New and old characters are fleshed out and push the action forward. An unresolved love triangle leaves teens wondering who Delaney will eventually choose. The cliff-hanger ending will keep fans anxiously anticipating the trilogy's conclusion. VERDICT Those who devoured the first book will be excited to continue adventures on Xenith. A first purchase where science fiction and romance are popular.—Ashley Leffel, Griffin Middle School, Frisco, TX
