Book Description:
The sequel to the action-packed Reboot is a can't-miss thrill ride, perfect for fans of James Patterson, Veronica Roth, and Marie Lu.

After coming back from death as Reboots and being trained by HARC as soldiers, Wren and Callum have finally escaped north, where they hope to find a life of freedom. But when they arrive at the Reboot Reservation, it isn't what they expected. Under the rule of a bloodthirsty leader, Micah, the Reboots are about to wage an all-out war on the humans. Although Wren's instincts are telling her to set off into the wilderness on their own and leave the battle far behind, Callum is unwilling to let his human family be murdered. When Micah commits the ultimate betrayal, the choice is made for them. But Micah has also made a fatal mistake . . . he's underestimated Wren and Callum.

The explosive finale to the Reboot duology is full of riveting action and steamy love scenes as Wren and Callum become rebels against their own kind.

With Reboot being one of my most surprising reads of last year, there is no way in heck I could have resisted picking up the sequel, I just wasn't capable of saying no to it.

 Reboot blew me away with just how much I loved it and to say I have been looking forward to Rebel is a huge understatement.

I knew going into this one that it might not be an easy read. Wren and Callum are two very different people and I just knew they would have their issues and problems because of it but I was hoping like crazy that they would be able to hold things together and work through whatever might come their way. I really was hoping that love could and would conquer all.

So while yes, I was super excited to read this, I was also a little scared too. I didn’t want anything to happen to my star crossed lovers. I didn't want the contention that I knew was bound to happen or the fights that I just knew might be lurking around every corner to be. I knew there would be hard times but I was still hoping like heck things would work out, in other words, I was hoping for the best but expecting the worse.

Once again Tintera blew me away with Wren and Callum's story, their love and their adventures. Not only has Wren grown and changed in so many ways since the beginning of her journey but so has Callum. 

And their love, their strength and their bravery..well, it is something else. Something fantastic and something great, something to be remembered. 

This was packed full of surprises. Full of all the greatness I loved in Reboot, but magnified. The mission is far more dangerous and their circumstances more dire. The rebellion is getting more anxious and there are new enemies that they never saw coming and that they never expected. 


In short, I loved this and it was the perfect conclusion to the series. It was believable and fast paced and felt real.
