The heart-pounding sequel to the instant New York Times bestseller, Unbreakable, by New York Times bestselling Beautiful Creatures co-author Kami Garcia.

He is here... and he could be anyone.

Kennedy Waters lives in a world where vengeance spirits kill, ghosts keep secrets, and a demon walks among us–a demon she accidentally set free.

Now Kennedy and the other Legion members–Alara, Priest, Lukas, and Jared–have to hunt him down. As they learn more about the history of the Legion and the Illuminati, Kennedy realizes that the greatest mystery of all does not belong to any secret order, but to her own family. With the clock ticking and the life of someone she loves hanging in the balance, Kennedy has to ask the question she fears most: what is it about her past that has left her Unmarked?

Kennedy and the rest of the Legion are up against Andras, the demon wanting to open up the gates of hell. It's up to the Legion to bring them down, but with Kennedy still unmarked she's having doubts if she's even suppose to be a part of their group and is doubting that her friends will still be her friends if she really isn't the fifth member they've been looking for.

The follow up book to Unbreakable brings so much light to new parts of the story and it helps to shed some more light on the characters that you already love. Kennedy is growing in what she hopes to be her path with the Legion, and watching her go on that journey is amazing. Kami Garcia brings it to life so well with her words, she makes you fall in love with all the characters almost immediately, and within this second book she just helps your love deepen for the Legion members: Jared, Lukas, Priest and Alara. I really enjoyed this book mainly because the focus wasn't completely on "ghost hunting", but because it brought in new evils that they had to deal with, and that they weren't completely familiar with-so instead of seeing Jared, Lukas, Priest and Alara doing what they do best you get to follow them as they learn new things. I really enjoyed that aspect of the book-if there isn't one thing I love more than following beloved characters on a trip it's seeing them on a trip that they aren't familiar with.

I recommend this book completely, and if you haven't read Unbreakable read that first and then read Unmarked.
