I advice that at least don's compare plots or writingstyles. And thats why I'm going to say my own opinion about that. Maybe I'm the only one who missunderstood, but I expected something bit different.

In some way it is right, if you think only talents of those characters spying and psychic stuff. July 1, 2012įirst I must say, that I'm don't completely agree with that James Bond and Sookie Stackhouse stuff. Definitely a great read about a dystopian society, teen angst, having to live larger than life through all of the pressures. Talia was stronger than she knew, tough, yet vulnerable. His character was so flawed, yet he had a lot of good going on, too. My Original review 2012 The story had great character development. Re-Publication Date: JanuPublisher: Indie Inked ISBN: 9781618429940 Genre: YA/Teen Paranormal Romance | Sci-fi Number of Pages: 378 Available from: Amazon | Barnes & Noble I received an ARC of the re-release of Talented from Indie Inked in exchange for my honest review. Was it timing? Paying more attention to the talents of the author? Truly feeling the character’s as they come alive in a fantasy world of the near future? Wonderful emotion-filled drama, adventure and pure teen exuberance with well-developed characters, to boot!! This is not my first time reading Talented by Sophie Davis, but for whatever reason, I enjoyed this so much more the second time around. Take a ride on this adventurous journey in this dystopian world where being a teen, alone, out for revenge for her parents’ murders is only part of the drama in Talia’s life, after all, she has to contend with being a talent and having feelings for more than one boy. When she should be concentrating on being trained as a formidable assassin, she gets distracted by a brash and boldly handsome talent that even as he is needling her, gets under her skin and starts chipping away at her heart. When young Talia’s parents are murdered while investigating the nuclear fallout, she is taken in by one the heads of an elite government unit that trains the talents, for Sophie, her abilities make her an excellent “hunter.” We are invited to follow Talia’s life as she learns to maneuver the ins and outs of training, life as a talent and possibly falling in love with her best friend, who may not be the best choice as boyfriend material. Called, “Talents,” they are often feared for the abilities they possess.

A nuclear disaster causes the Great Contamination and special abilities in the children.
