Title: The Hunt (Book 1)Author: Andrew Fukuda
Rating: 5/5
Description:
In a world where humans have been eaten to near extinction, seventeen-year-old Gene has only managed to survive by painstakingly concealing his true species. If the bloodthirsty creatures surrounding him knew what he really was—a human—he would be devoured swiftly and terribly. When Gene is chosen to participate in the government-sponsored hunt for the last remaining humans, it thrusts him into the fight of his life—and into the path of a human girl who makes him feel things he never thought possible. Now, he must learn the art of the hunt and elude his fellow hunters whose suspicions about his true human nature are growing. But most importantly, Gene and the girl he loves must find a way to forge a life together in a brutal world that’s bent on their destruction. With his propulsive plot and highly developed characters, readers will find it impossible to resist the vivid world Andrew Fukuda has created in this stunning standout debut. Readers craving a book that grips and mesmerizes them like The Hunger Games will love The Hunt.

Title: The Prey (Book 2)Author: Andrew Fukuda
Rating: 5/5
Description:
For Gene and the remaining humans - or hepers - death is just a heartbeat away. On the run and hunted by society, they must find a way to survive in The Vast...and avoid the hungry predators tracking them in the dark. But they're not the only things following Gene. He's haunted by the girl he left behind and his burgeoning feelings for Sissy, the human girl at his side. When they discover a refuge of exiled humans living high in the mountains, Gene and his friends think they're finally safe. Led by a group of intensely secretive elders, the civilisation begins to raise more questions than answers. A strict code of behaviour is the rule, harsh punishments are meted out, young men are nowhere to be found - and Gene begins to wonder if the world they've entered is just as evil as the one they left behind. As life at the refuge grows more perilous, he and Sissy only grow closer. In an increasingly violent world, all they have is each other ...if they can only stay alive.
My Review:
This is the second book about a group of humans running from creatures, vampires. They are trying to survive the hunt of their kind when they find a 'mission' with other humans. Only thing bad is that Gene is suffering from a horrible cold and is out for days. This place is strange, so many pregant girls and no young males only elders. When Gene wakes up he finds that he is full of questions. But with news and other tragic things happen they end up exactly how they were at the end of book one... running. will they find a place called home? I'm enjoying this series alot and looking forward to the next one. And I will be reading it when it comes out!
