Hunted (House Of Night #5) By: P.C. Cast & Kristin Cast

Hunted (House of Night, #5)Hunted by P.C. Cast
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Zoey and her friends help Stevie Rae to heal after Stark shoots her with an arrow at the end of book #4 Untamed. Most of her lifeblood was spread on the ground to resurrect Kalona from the earth. Stevie Rae drinks Aphrodite's blood to heal and they are imprinted. Their imprint bothers Aphrodite so she gets drunk.

Zoey and Erik talk and get back together, Zoey is not sure that this will be a good thing because Erik is too possessing. Zoey starts having dreams about Kalona. These dreams are more like visions. She finds out that if she does not sleep alone that Kalona has a hard time entering her dreams so she gets Stark to sleep with her. Zoey convinces Stark to become a good vampire again like she did Stevie Rae. Stark pledges his warriors oath to Zoey and becomes the second red fledgling, Stevie Rae is the first.

Heath arrives at the tunnels to talk to Zoey about them getting back together. They are attacked by Raven Mockers. Zoey protects Heath from the Raven Mockers and is badly wounded. To help her heal she drinks Heath’s blood and they imprint again. Darius convinces them that Zoey needs to return to the House Of Night school to be around adult vampires to help her heal. Back at the school they discuss Kramisha's poem with Lebonia about how to banish Kalona and Neferet from the school. They figure out who will represent the elements Night, Humanity, Blood, Spirit and Earth. She is Night, Blood is Stevie Rae, Humanity is Aphrodite, Sister Mary Angela is Spirit, and Grandma Redbird is Earth.

They all escape on horseback to the Benedictine Abbey. Where Zoey, Stevie Rae, Aphrodite, Sister Mary Angela and Grandma Redbird form a circle to banish Kalona and Neferet. Neferet tells Stark to shoot Zoey but he does not want to do this so he thinks about Zoey being his heart. He points his arrow at Zoey knowing that he will kill himself and not Zoey. Zoey realizes this and uses the elements to stop him from shooting himself and knocks him out.

As I have said before the House Of Night books are some of my favorite books about vampires that I have read. They are very different from other vampire books in that it takes four years for one to turn into a vampire. P.C. Cast & Kristin Cast books just keep getting better and better with each book that they write. I will be very sad when they come to an end if they ever do that is. I hope that they never end.
