5.0 out of 5 starsPersonally I Loved It
By TheStoryGoes on June 14, 2014
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
So you know how these days a lot of the time you read the first book in a series/trilogy/duology and it's completely awesome and it pulls you in and consumes you and you spend a year obsessively stalking the Internet for every little scrap of info as you patiently(ha) wait for the sequel to FINALLY come out and then a lot of the time it's kind of a disappointment? It's not that it's bad but it's just not quite as good? It's as if the author lost momentum some where? Well not with this book! It is at least as good as the first and, in my opinion, definitely not a disappointment.
Now I don't want to give away any spoilers or anything for Proxy and honestly I don't want to sit here and write out a long detailed review of why this book is awesome and why you should read it and all the things so I'll just talk about some of my favorite things and then you can read the book, okay?

A Few Of My Favorite Things -
-Liam - He's no Knox but he is awesome. I wouldn't say that I liked him as much as I liked Knox but it was pretty damn close. He's just a really complex character and yeah I loved him.
-Syd - Okay Syd had some down moments in this book but that didn't make me love him any less, maybe it even made me love him a little more. He was still himself, sure he was changed and sad and slightly depressed but in the end he didn't let that stop him.
-The plot - I didn't really know how this book as going to go because honestly when I read Proxy I thought it was a stand alone and I was kinda apprehensive about this but it was awesome. It made total sense and it just added so much to the story. Basically I loved it, are you seeing a pattern here? I am.
- Twisty - I feel like there were some very interesting twists in this book and I loves me a good twist.
And now I think I am running out of things to say and my brain doesn't feel like cooperating and yeah.

Your turn! Read the book! READ IT!

5.0 out of 5 starsWell, Mr London, you've got me beggin' you for more.
By Årolilja Grimsdottir on January 2, 2015
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
This is the second book in a series, and we are all familiar with the posible disappointment a second book can be compared with the first one. I loved Proxy and was so happy when I found out the second book had already come out. These books are special in my opinion because they are for a young audience (I'd say age 14 and up, perfect for those who are tired of the "safe" Percy Jackson stories and want some more blood and daring/realistic language) and the lead protagonist is dark skinned and gay! There's almost always a character that is gay, but it's never the lead character, still these books aren't at all about being gay or anything, it's just that the lead person is gay and I think that's really cool.
I enjoyed the first book a lot and was kinda nervous about the second book, scared of what would happen, would it be as good as the first one or would I be totally disappointed? Some new characters came into the book pretty early and that also made me nervous. But ... it didn't take long before I was in love once again! One of the main characters in Guardian is a seventeen year old guy named Liam who's got a metal hand! How cool is that? I already loved Syd, never liked Marie much, though it got better in this book, I worshipped Knox, and I quickly fell for Liam too (pluss his physical description looks exactly like my brothers not that you should care).
Guardian is full-packed action from chapter 4 and out. There's blood and tears and fear and love and humour.
This is one of those rare books you can say did not disappoint at all. I thought it was nearly as good as the first one and I enjoyed it to the end. Now I'm biting my fingernails waiting for the third one. Hurry up, Alex London! I need the third one! Dear reader, just pick up Guardian, okay?Read more ›

4.0 out of 5 starsgreat follow up to an amazing book
By Captain Rhetoric on August 24, 2014
Format: Kindle Edition Verified Purchase
Guardian explores what happens after the revolution happens and all didn't go as planned. What will people do after they get what they wanted? What if everyone isn't so happy? We meet some new characters who save as much as they need saving, and some who may get saved despite themselves. It is well written and the characters keep growing and exploring new facets of themselves in an enjoyable story. Will Syd find the love he is capable of sharing? Will the world recover after it was freed? Will. Liam bring them all the hope they need? We hope so.

4.0 out of 5 starsSatisfying Sequel
By zacware on April 10, 2015
Format: Hardcover Verified Purchase
This was a satisfying continuance of the Proxy story. Syd finds himself in a malaise brought on by his new role in the Reconciliation. As expected, this is quickly shattered with the arrival of a new and pressing issue that threatens to destroy those around him. What was unexpected was the expert treatment of Syd's relationships with his friends and enemies. While this novel has plenty of action and suspense, what was most interesting was the character development. Old favorites take on new roles in the Reconciliation and the change is dramatic. Even though Syd is the star of this series, a new character Liam is introduced and explored more fully than Syd. I particularly liked the internal conflict that each of the characters was facing and how their actions only seemed to exacerbate their conflicts. I also liked the treatment of the "Chapter 11," or gay, characters; there were no hot passion scenes, but rampant discrimination, gentle longing, and heartbreak were explored in a tenderhearted manner. I felt like these characters were not artificial constructs but real, living people dealing with normal issues in a dysfunctional world.

The best part was the ending. Like most 2nd books in a trilogy, it didn't resolve many of the conflicts, but it did do a phenomenal job of tying two characters together even while one was on the precipice of death. Some may be frustrated that we won't know the outcome of this death struggle until the next book, but the comfort gained from the resolution of one character's struggle was well worth the mystery.

I definitely recommend this book!
