Ash, a sixteen-year-old twin-blood who sells his addictive venom, "Haze," to support his dying mother, and Natalie, the daughter of a diplomat, discover their mysterious--and forbidden--connection in the Black City, where humans and Darklings struggle to rebuild after a brutal war.
Despite some of the less than complementary reviews, I really enjoyed Black City. The overuse of the word 'Fragg' and 'Fragging' had me on the verge of wanting to slap someone around just to ease my frustration, but that was my only justified complaint. Instant love and angst is almost a given now in the young adult field. Looking forward to the second in the series.
