My Review:
5 Out Of 5 Stars
Genre: Mystery, Suspense, Teen--
Picking up right after the crazy events of book 1, Project Pandora, Project Prometheus shows that Hades is still alive. He has been kidnapped by one of his many enemies from the hospital where he was recovering from a bullet wound , but he won't be a anyone's victim. Tyler and and Shannon have made it out and are experiencing a moment of freedom before the truth hits them- other kids are still being used and it is up to them to make it stop. The three damaged yet determined teens will stop at nothing to bring down the people behind Project Pandora.
Project Prometheus was exactly what I wanted it to be! There was no sophomore slump present in these pages, instead it was full on action, danger, mystery, confessions, twists and some pretty big surprises. Make sure you set time aside to read this book (or really either book in the series) because you will not want to put it down. I was a little concerned picking this up to start that I would not remember what happened fully in Project Pandora since it had such a complicated plot and I read it about a year ago, but that was an idle concern since Aden skillfully wove in the needed tidbits to spark my memory at the start of the book without info dumping or recapping. It was so easy for me to get sucked back into this stressful, wonderful world.
I know I raved about Hades in my review of the last book, but my heart still belongs to this tormented, abused, neglected, pretty sure sociopathic boy. Yes, I am notorious for rooting for the villain/ least liked person, but in this case I see Hades as the hero. Sure, Tyler and Shannon want to do what is right and save the world aka the other teens, and they have a chance of being able to one day have normal lives. But Hades, he will never be "normal" and he is willing to sacrifice himself if he can take the evildoers down (usually by terrible means, but oh well). Keep in mind that I love Shannon and Tyler, and especially the dynamic and banter between them. Aden is great at creating distinct voices for his characters that never overlap and make them feel so real (and that is a big deal here since we are talking about teen brainwashed trained assassins).
And yes, there will be more books to come because in no way was this the end for these characters or this mission- it felt like the war was just starting. More questions popped up right near the ending, so I am dying to find out more. Also, a certain unnamed but completely damaged yet I love character is going in a very different direction and I need to see what happens to him. Aden has made a fan for certain out of me and I look forward to what he has in store for the Project Prometheus.
:
Tyler Bennett trusts no one. Just another foster kid bounced from home to home, he’s learned that lesson the hard way. Cue world’s tiniest violin. But when strange things start happening—waking up with bloody knuckles and no memory of the night before or the burner phone he can’t let out of his sight— Tyler starts to wonder if he can even trust himself.
Even stranger, the girl he’s falling for has a burner phone just like his. Finding out what’s really happening only leads to more questions…questions that could get them both killed. It’s not like someone’s kidnapping teens lost in the system and brainwashing them to be assassins or anything, right? And what happens to rogue assets who defy control?
In a race against the clock, they’ll have to uncover the truth behind Project Pandora and take it down—before they’re reactivated. Good thing the program spent millions training them to kick ass...
