Killer Of Enemies by Joseph Bruchac, 361 pages
Lozen is the killer of enemies, but not necessarily her own enemies. She has been taken by the rulers of Haven, the Ones. They are what is left of the upper class, after the Silver Cloud destroyed civilization. Lozen stays because the Ones hold her family hostage. She goes on missions, risking her life to kill the genetically modified monsters that now exist and would prey upon the people of Haven if they could. Lozen plans for the day she can escape with her family, as soon as a chance arises. This YA book would be great for any teen that likes action adventure books. Although the main character is a girl, the story is compelling enough to interest boys as well.
