review 1: Centaur Legacy is book two in the Touched series by Nancy Straight, and I am hooked.Centaur Legacy continues the story of the Centaur herds, or families, and give us even more insight into who they are and how they came to be. The characters are believable and strong, yet flawed and make mistakes. This book blends and deepens the mythology surrounding the centaurs and their interactions with the gods of Greek mythology. I was a little lost at early points in the book as new herds were introduced and the plot felt like it was going to get overly complicated by them, but as I kept reading things made sense and I enjoyed the additions to the story.I'm looking forward to reading the next two books, and once again, though there is most definitely some physical attraction betwee... moren the men and the ladies, (Hello! Gorgeous warrior men!!) it was relationships and their commitment to those they love that took center stage.These books are clean with no sex and little to no language. Recommended for ages 15+. An interesting Young Adult paranormal romance. Great read. I would have given it 5 stars but the confusion of keeping track of who is who near the middle of the book was...well...confusing.
review 2: I love the touched Series. Blood Debt was one of my favorite books of 2012. Centaur Legacy picks up right where Blood Debt left off. Drake and Cami have escaped from Zandra's house and are off to find Hercules' arrow. Cami really comes into her own in Centaur Legacy. She starts to explore the limits of her powers and she is really impressive. Maybe even a little scary when she is in action. I loved seeing her start to learn how to use her powers. Because she is from two really powerful bloodlines, she can do some really cool stuff. And I loved seeing her with Drake. Even though they had this awesome connection in the first book, they didn't really get a chance to get to know each other. Because at the time Drake was betrothed to Bianca and then Cami was kidnapped so they didn't have a ton of time to just enjoy each others company. So when they went to Ireland in search of this mysterious arrow, it was adorable to see them just talking and getting to know each other better. it seemed so ordinary but it was cute because they seemed just like any other normal couple falling in love. But they couldn't be normal for long. Centaur Legacy is full of just as much action as the first book. Cami is so important that a lot of people want her, and they will pretty much do anything to get her to help them. They each want her to become bound to someone in their line so that their herd will gain power. Plus there is all sorts of interesting things about the Lost Herd going on. You learn a lot about the history of the herds and we even find out who Cami's long lost twin is. There is a crazy twist with Drake too. I didn't see that coming! Centaur Legacy is a great sequel to Blood Debt. I am so excited that I have the third book to this series because I love it! less
