If they can find him, maybe they’ll be safe. His father is a sorcerer who disappeared about a year ago after being involved with the Edison Group. as they try to accomplish their ultimate goal – finding Simon’s father. There’s lots of fleeing, chasing, hiding, scrapping, etc.
The greater power should come in handy, but she and her friends are being targeted for a reason – their powers are out of control.Ĭhloe and her friends are on the move throughout this book. Now that Chloe knows what they’re up against, it becomes imperative to escape and warn Simon and Derek. This explains why Chloe has seen her friend a couple times – the girl was murdered. Some children had less side effects during their transition and less power than the average supernatural, but others had a great deal more power than anticipated so much so that the Edison Group terminated the subjects who seemed out of control. The group was attempting to create supernaturals who went through the transition of gaining their powers easier, but, as with most experiments, something went wrong. The residents of Lyle House were actually part of an experiment done by the Edison Group. Chloe does some sleuthing, however, and learns something that might give them an advantage. She and Rae need to find a way to escape, but this time they’re not in a regular house with a simple burglar system and instead of dealing with human nurses, they must face adult supernaturals who know a great deal more about their powers than they do. This book picks up at the exact moment that the last left off, with Chloe trapped in a compound about to summon the ghost of a friend. While they do make it out, someone has betrayed them and Chloe and Rae are captured by the Edison Group, the group of people who placed them in Lyle House. After Chloe and Derek get into some trouble in the home, it’s clear that they need to escape. Simon is a cute, kind sorcerer and Rae’s obsession with fire seems like it might be more than just pyromania. Derek, a large, brusque boy, is actually a young werewolf in the process of changing. And she’s not the only one with special powers.
After learning that the people were really ghosts, she realized that she is a necromancer, someone who can communicate with and raise the dead. Chloe was placed in the home when she started seeing people that supposedly weren’t there. On the outside, Lyle House is a home for troubled teens, but really it’s a home for teens with special powers – supernaturals.
If you haven’t read the first book, you should stop reading here, because there’s really no way to talk about what happens in this book without revealing spoilers about the first one.
This is an incredibly fun young adult series featuring a young necromancer and her supernatural friends. The Awakening is the second book in Armstrong’s Darkest Powers trilogy.
