Into the Fire is the second of the thirteen Daughters of the Moon series by Lynne Ewing. This quick read, suspenseful series revolves around high school girls balancing teenage issues in addition to dealing with their acquired secret mystical powers of the moon and their fate of protecting the world from the evil Atrox. The second book focuses on Serena Killingsworth. Although she has powers that include telepathy, mind control, and mind reading she begins to lose chunks of her memory the more she spends time with her new boyfriend, Zahi. As the story advances, the rest of the goddesses begin to recognize that Zahi is associated with the evil Atrox and his followers. Serena is torn between her forbidden love for Zahi and her fate to destroy him. The astounding descriptions of supernatural elements and the power of invisibility keep readers engaged. Ewing mixes mythology, fantasy, magic, love, friendship, and teenage drama to create an unforgettable and original story. Although the series is a quick read, the plot could be strengthened if the audience had more details on the lives of each individual girl. The Daughters of the Moon are back for the second book in the series and this time we follow Serena whose gift is to read minds. She is having strange experiences with dream-like qualities where she sees a girl walk into a fire. When she tries to help her Serena finds the fire is cold and she has interupted a ritual of evil Atrox followers (their nemisis). Jimena has a premonition that Serena will betray the other Daughters to the Atrox and so far they have not been able to stop one of her seeings from coming true. To complicate matters further Serena has boys on the brain. There is a new guy at school called Zahi who she loves spending time with, but the girls start to wonder if he is all he seems as Serena starts to loose chunks of her memory. She is acting strange and unlike herself causing the others to be worried about her. This was another fun and easy read developing the main story nicely. Morgan manages to get in the mix again and looks like she will remain an issue for the girls in future installments. I look forward to reading what the girls get up to next. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

I just really love this series and how all of the relationships are written. Even though there's sort of a love triangle plot at the center of this installment, the romantic plot line isn't written as a traditional romance arc. It's as if the author thought that falling for a boy was the least interesting thing that could happen to a girl and thusly refused to dedicate a significant amount of pages to it. This book deals so much more with female friendships, brother-sister relationships, frenemies, and aspirations for the future.
This series of books will probably always be my gold standard for teen romance, for how little importance Ewing gives them. It's realistic and refreshing. And the teens sound like the teens of my generation. Their deepest convos still sound very teenage, a little clumsy, and maybe referential. ( )
