The Nine Lives of Chloe King, Volume One

Chloe King seemed like the typical 16-year-old girl. However, falling off the highest tower in San Francisco and not dying-well, dying and coming back to life-seemed to disqualify her as typical. After that, things only kept getting stranger.

In Celia Thomson's novel, The Fallen (the first volume of Nine Lives of Chloe King), the main character, Chloe, finds herself moving further away from being a normal teenager with each coming day. From instantly connecting with random strangers to growing claws-all the while also discovering and trying to escape a stalker trying to kill her-Chloe struggles to sort everything out. Despite her hopes, things will never be the same again.

Celia Thomson serves as a promising writer with this series. This first volume of The Nine Lives of Chloe King starts a series about Chloe King that will keep readers gripped. Stories about teenage girls going through a phase of self-discovery are typical, if not clich?d. However, The Fallen is hardly a hackneyed story. While The Nine Lives of Chloe King tells yet another story about a girl going through many obstacles in her life while trying to discover who she really is, it is done in an entirely fresh, adventurous and thrilling way. The Fallen makes readers hunger for the following books of the series.
