About this deal

Kid Hero stories with a particularly dark tone may also have this as normality for the setting, especially if that setting is a Teenage Wasteland. Ray isn't supposed to take a case from clients straight off the street, but when a female client enters and asks if he would find a missing actor, Charles David - then kill him. Over reading the book, Dick allows you to shut off from the wider world (especially on a packed commuter train) and enjoy just the story.

Moreover, the story does not get bogged down too much by numbers and “screens” like so many other stories on this site (there are “party status” sheets, but these are not in blue text and appear sparingly at the end of some chapters, hidden within RR’s spoiler function). Unsurprisingly, she was traumatized, and the arc that featured the flashback culminated in an Immortal decrying the irresponsibility of the two french Immortals who originally equipped Nanase and Susan for the battle, while giving them no apparent alternative save dying at the hands of the vampire. I like the characters and the concept: a maid who wants to wipe out her enemies with the mundane abilities of her profession. The guy in "Psychodrama" tried to force young boys to kill, or otherwise just attack, their mothers under threat of death. The 24 Made-for-TV Movie Redemption included some children being trained to kill by the followers of an African general.In Guts' case, arguably twice; one was maybe more of a revenge thing, but given both that he was a kid and what the revenge was for, it could arguably still count as this. I hoped for a little, as I said, but I got rather a whole lot, and in some ways this was just about as frightening as the quick, merciful death I'd expected. Her first kill is her dear friend and cousin whom she lived with ever since the death of her mother. Unlike most examples of this trope, which are played for tragedy or horror, it was a moment of triumph for her as she embraced her birthright as a Princess of Helium.

I've read them all - 30 novels by Baldacci, Clancy, Flynn - I'd put Peterson's Forced to Kill among the best. Meticulous attention to detail, excellent timing/pacing, got me completely and emotionally involved. Scholars have noted that Lee also addresses issues of class, courage, compassion, and gender roles in the Deep South.I know what I wrote, but I needed you to read this lol) I'm quite enjoying the story thus far, and I'm sure others are inclined to agree from the rating.
