Summary: THE BEST BOOK EVER!!
Review: When I first started reading this book I thought I'd get to book 5 or 6 before stop reading the series. I was sooooooooo wrong. Now I'm on book 17. This is my favorite series. There is no series better then this one! You must read this series.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hey! All Francine Pascal fans out there!
Review: Attention: if you're a Francine Pascal fan, you're in for a big surprise. If you thought F. Pascal was only for love stories, you're totally wrong! In this new book, F. Pascal gives us a new picture of herself. Instead of the old "I love you" thing, Fearless is about Gaia, a girl born without fear (I mean literally). She has the most weirdest life anyone could have ranging from a CIA agent Dad (who weirdly dissappears), to an even weirder stepmother who's thirty something but thinks she's seventeen. Gaia was trained in martial arts, judo, kung fu, whatever sorts of self-defense out there. Because of her lack of fear, she doesn't panic in times of emergency. Fearless introduces us to Gaia, tells us about her first day in New York, about her meeting Ed, a handicapped person, and how she faces her new life in NY. All in all, this was a good book because not only does it changes our view of F. Pascal, it also gives us a rush of "adrenaline" going with Gaia through all her "adventures" in the book.

Summary: one of my favourites...
Review: I must say that this series has had it's grasp on me for quite some time. AND when there's a delay with the next installment, needless to say, I'M ...! I was definately mad enough when there was the long break between 12 and 13, and I'm going to say now that the new cover design ... big time, it was best the way that is was for the first 12 books.

ANYWAY, for those of you who have never read the series, get to it! You'll be enthralled by the plot twists, amazed by the characters, and comletely captivated by the very story.

Gaia, who was abandoned by her CIA father after her mother's death, is "moved" to New York, befriended by Ed, who was paralized in an accident and is in a wheelchair, falls in love with a handsome NYU college student, and surrounded by caos There are people close to her who aren't what they seem, people that love her for who she is, and people that would do anything for her, even kill. Add on top of that fights that seem to be attracted to Gaia no matter where she is, having to chose between two loves(i think three, first Sam, then Paul, then Ed, those of you who have read up to 16 in the series might know what I'm talking about), having to choose between two stories from two family members, having to choose right from wrong and what seems to be right and what seems to be wrong through the lies that are told. She definately has a hard, unforgiving, complicated life, full of decisions that could change her life forever.

What i want to know is if this series is going to end at #18, i had heard that it was. I truely hope not because then i wouldn't have anything to look forward to every month or so!

I want to know who BFF is too and if he is someone close to Gaia too!

And as for Sam, well i hope Gaia falls for Ed and leaves him in the dust for good, he's being a jealous arse-hole in #16!

If you want to talk more about this series or anything in general, horses rule!, give me a ringaling(well not quite) ...

Summary: This is a great book
Review: This was one of the best books that i have ever read. Gaia kicks ***. I started this series a month ago and i just finished book 16, you should definatley read this book and the rest of the series. I was reading some of the other reviews and i have to say that the few people who did not like this book must have really poor taste in books.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent Book
Review: Fearless is a geat book about Gaia, a 17-year old orphan who was born without the fear gene. She lives in New York City where she fights evil. It reminds me a little of Buffy the Vampire Slayer except for the fact that Buffy slays vampires, Gaia fights gangs, robbers, and more.

This series is a big turn-around for Francine Pascal, the author who also writes SVH, and a must read for any action-adventure fan.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: FEARLESS
Review: Fearless is a book like no other. I have never read a book like this before. Gaia, the main character, was born without the fear gene. Gaia was orphaned and now lives with a friend of her fathers whom she doesnt care for. They live in New York City and lately there have been slashings in Central Park. Everynight Gaia walks through the park to see if someone will try to slash her. You see, Gaia was born without the fear gene so when she plans to get slashed shes really planning on beating up the slashers to teach them a lesson. One night the unexpected happens and plants her in the hospital next to her crush.

This book may be like no other and that makes it stand out in a good way. I recomend this to anyone who is looking for a book that tells how girls are not the weaker gender.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A girl born without the fear gene
Review: Gaia Moore is just a normal teenage girl...well, as normal as a teenage girl can be when she knows no fear, is a master in karate, kick-boxing, and many other forms of defense. She lives with George and Ella, her two legal guardians, because her father abandoned her when her mother was murdered. She is fluent in many languages. She goes around Washington Square Park to play chess like a master--and to go around looking for trouble. So that pretty much crosses the line separating normal and...well, not. Not paying any attention to the warnings about going to the park after dark, she walks right through, pausing to look through her bag, giving slashers a chance to come after her, and then attacks with the force of three giant, 7-foot ninja warriors. And that's basically what the slasher tells his not-yet girlfriend, when she sees his bruises. But when she identifies the man who severely wounded a girl from school, and his gang starts trying to kill her, her confidence starts to dim a little bit, because she believes that soon, they will succeed. This book was a great start to the series. The end was so cliffhanging that I couldn't wait to read book #2: Sam. I recommend this book for older fans of Replica by Marilyn Kaye, and all action-packed books.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: An entire series of must-haves
Review: The series are good, even for adults who wanted a lighter experience in literature. With complex and intriguing characters, the author managed to make the story addictive and unpredictable. In some situation, she often cleverly gave me a sense of 'climbing to the climax', but to my amazement, they ended in the most unpredictable way. Fortunately, because of the way she maintain 'the flicker of hope' in her narration, instead of feeling rudely awakened, I felt charged to continue reading for another unpredictable twist. The focus is mainly about the er, troubled life of a 17-year-old high school girl, Gaia, who had just moved in with her foster parents' house in New York. Her ultimate dream was to lead a normal life, despite the fact that she had never felt 'fear' (probably never will) and she was physically and mentally trained by her secret-agent-father since she was very little. Her mother's sudden death when she was little, her father's mysterious disappearance right after that and her constantly changing foster parents, school and residency left Gaia deeply scarred and lonely. Beneath her expressionless, tall, tough, unkempt but beautiful physique and hostile attitude, she was an emotionally sensitive girl, screaming to be loved and pampered. Although she acted confident and independent, she actually had a low self-esteem when it comes to physical appearance and relationships. She refused to let anybody know about her personal things and extra strength, which compensated the lack of fear in hope that she would be look upon and treated as a normal girl. In what seems like an attempt to bury her emotional pain and loneliness, she secretly made use of her fearless heart, strength and skills by taking up 'beating-up-thugs' as a hobby (apart from playing chess). The deep relationships between the characters made them alive, especially the friendship between Gaia and wheelchair-riding-Ed, who at first, was Gaia's only acquaintance since after a few days in New York. In this series, nothing is like what it appears to be. For example two of Gaia's enemy, the popular and gorgeous Heather (Ed's ex) and Gaia's foster-mother, the bimbo-like and sexy Ella. Everybody had his or her own dark secret that unravels as the story develops. Fearless is quite a clever combination of love, sarcasm, violence and mystery.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 16 years old and hooked!!!
Review: I know I'm a little old for this book, but I still adored it. I actually read this in one sitting amd I'm dying for the next installment!! I can't wait to see what happens with Giai. The whole idea of a young female superhero really appeals to me.
