Hover is the second book in “The Taking” series. The story picks up after Ari was taken to Loge when a neurotoxin was released on earth. Ari Alexander and Jackson Castello, the grandson of Zeus, must save the Ancients and the humans by trying to get them back to earth. However, this entails a dangerous mission that is put in Ari’s hands. She must kill Zeus, the ruler of Loge. Will she succeed or not? Will her relationship with Jackson make it through his secrets and lies?

I read this book without reading the first one, except for the summary, and honestly was expecting to be lost in the book. I don’t mean being lost as in attention but as in not understanding. However, that wasn’t the case. Throughout the story I discovered bits and pieces from the previous book and was able to follow along clearly through the story. This second book was so captivating there is a lot of action going on and I was able to learn a lot about the world of Loge, including the unrest of some Logean people against Zeus.
