Well, it supposed to be Top 10 Characters but hey I'm all for girl power. So my Top 10 Kick Ass Chicks this year (in no particular order).
1. Isabel from Mistwood
She's a Shifter. A creature that has superhuman strength and speed who is sworn to protect the King and his heirs. And eventhough she suffers from amnesia she can really kick some ass.
2. Maya from The Gathering
Another shape shifter. And she has this thing with cougars and mountain lions. Wow!
3. Calla from Nightshade
Eventhough I didn't really enjoy the book, I think Calla is awesome. She's supposed to be her pack alpha werewolf. Too bad she had to fell in love and had to sacrificed everything.
4. Six from The Power of Six
After reading and watching I Am Number Four, I just can't wait to read the rest of the series. Yes, Six is the main reason for that.
5. Saba from Blood Red Road
Saba could certainly give Katniss a run for her money. She even shaved her head! She was called the 'Angel of Death' because she's a fearsome female gladiator who always win.
6. Tris from Divergent
You have to be pretty kick-ass to be able join the Dauntless.
7. Karou from Daughter of Smoke & Bone
She's fluent in multiple languages and very good in martial arts. Well it helps that she was raised by chimareas.
8. Riley from Forsaken
It's hard enough to live in a world full of demons and to be a female Demon Trapper. And what's worse? Her dad died and now she has to find enough money to support herself and watch over her dad's grave. Oh dear!
9. Billi from Dark Goddess
Billi or Bilqis SanGreal is a lot like Riley. But instead of killing demons, she killed vampires, ghosts, werewolf and anything in between. And she's also the only female Knights Templar in London.
10. Katniss from The Hunger Games
She's the reluctant heroine fighting for her survival. Always protecting her loved ones but a bit clueless on the love front.
This is a great list. A couple of these books I need to catch up with.

ReplyDeleteHello, I'm definitely agree with number 2 and 3, fascinated me. The rest of the list are very good from what I read.

Dear Fara, I'm cool if Calla just stick by Ren but maybe someone really need to kick the evil wizards/magicians asses, huh?
