Messenger of Fear

"If you are wicked, the messenger will find you."  This is the tagline for Michael Grant's (Gone series, BRZK series) new series, The Messenger of Fear.  Mara wakes up shrouded by mist and with total amnesia to find herself in the company of an unusual young man who calls himself Messenger. She soon learns that she is to be apprentice to Messenger and eventually take over for him. What is his job?  To seek out and punish those who do evil things and go unpunished in the "real" world.  This story is gruesome and hard to read at times, therefore it's not for younger teens. I would recommend this for at least age 15 and up. It's a short book, quick to read, and leaves one eagerly anticipating the second book in the series. Sorry, no information on when that book will be published yet!
