This review is from: Death Row: The Avenger (Paperback)

The Avenger is the third installment in the Death Row series. None of these titles stand alone so reader beware. You need to start at the beginning of the series to absorb this plot line and story in its entirety. But you won't be disappointed making the commitment as each story is woven together to suck the reader into a futuristic world that both horrifies and attracts.

Kerick keeps Nellie a prisoner as he works at mastering her. Nellie doesn't wish to betray her lover but she has little choice as the fate of so many rests on her ability to perfect the serum. Kerick would never understand Nellie's background. She has not told him her father is one of the most hated men in the Hierarchy and when Kerick finds out this fact from another he feels betrayed by Nellie.
But he swallows his hatred and lets his love for Nellie lead his instincts as Nellie wins him over and he vows to help her find the Xibalba and the answers that await within. Unfortunately for Kerick, the Xibalba does hold the secret to the serum and it is Nellie that holds the key to unlocking that secret.
Kerick is held prisoner as Nellie once again treks through the jungle, this time towards her destiny. If things go her way, she will be able to hold in her hand the cure and the future of the human race. But there is an equal chance that fate will turn on her and she will die at the claws of the sub-humans.

Discover Ms. Black's world of the future, where the rules between the sexes are stringently dominant and females are prized for their bodies and must survive on their wits. For a read that will propel you into another dimension, I highly recommend this series.
