Hero High: Figure In The Flames by Mina Chara – Review by Meg Tyrrell

Figure in the Flames (Hero High, #1-3)Figure in the Flames by Mina Chara
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Figure in the Flames is a collection of books 1-3 in the Hero High Series by Mina Chara. Having all 3 books in a box set was a great idea- each time I finished a book, I was scrambling for the next. This series introduces Friday Fitzsimmons and her super power. She needs to learn how to use her power and when. Leaning on friends is a good thing, until it’s not. Who will be in Friday’s corner? Trust me this is a great read if you like the super power genre. It is a YA book, but the way Mina writes, makes it for any age!

5-Stars

Hero High: Figure In The Flames by Mina Chara was an exciting and fun read. The storyline easily caught my attention and I burned through this book in a heartbeat. The characters were fun and creative with unique powers and abilities. Friday was special and her power was passive. Her personality and subtle love interest kept me hooked. I loved the ending even if it was a bit of an emotional thing. Such a wonderful read. I highly recommend it!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Figure in the Flames is a collection of books 1-3 in the Hero High Series by Mina Chara. I love that she made it into a boxset, because the books are cliffhangers, and I believe, should be all 1 book. Its 3 parts to the same story. I highly recommend this series, I’ve really enjoyed it. This is the first time reading this author, but I look forward to more. When I first started the series, I thought it was going to be cheesy because of the names of the city and characters. They were not very original, using names like Super Structure, Hero High, and Captain Fantastic. Despite that, I am glad I stuck out the story because I ended up loving it. The writing style is very descriptive and you feel like you’re right there alongside the characters. It seems like The Incredibles meets XMen.
The series starts out with Denial, which follows 17 year old Friday, who has super powers. She is shipped off to Hero High, which is a school for those with powers, but doubles as a reality show. They are followed by cameras, and merchandise is made to look like them and sold in the malls. These super kids are assigned a team and a mentor, have their wardrobes picked for them, the whole nine yards. They are constantly being filmed,dressed up for photo shoots and whisked off to PR events. Friday is trying to stay in the shadows, but keeps finding herself in the spotlight.
The next book is Anger, and it picks up right where Denial left off. This book is very short, and I read it in 1 night. This story continues telling us of Friday’s life at Hero High. There isn’t a lot I can tell you without possible spoiler alerts. Friday comes in contact with the new Dr. Dangerous again, and things escalate quickly. She is still looking up to her mentor Sense. And the weird love/hate relationship between Friday and Ashley continues.
Bargaining is book 3 was my favorite of the three. There is so much going on in this book! So many shocks and surprises, action packed. Friday wanted to stay in the background, but since day 1 has been up front and center. She feels like everything is going wrong. She keeps fighting with her best friend, and handler, Jake. Dr Dangerous, a superhero who is supposed to be dead, seems to have resurfaced (or a copycat) and has a fixation on her. And there is a man in flames that keeps showing up and causing trouble. There are so many shockers in this story, I don’t want to give anything away. I highly recommend and cannot wait to see what happens next.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I found myself enjoying these books, even though it is a genre I don’t usually read. Friday is attending Hero High which simultaneously films a reality TV show. While her superpower isn’t one of the big flashy ones, she needs to find a way to make the producers (and audience) notice her and want her to be in a better grouping. While navigating the school aspect, she also has personal relationship drama with her best friend, new relationships to build with her mentor and other students, and a mysterious figure in the flames which keeps making appearances in her life.
This is definitely young adult…but it was a nice break from some of the other heavy stuff I read. I was pulled into the futuristic world and added drama of the reality tv show (like Big Brother). The series is not over…so I will be waiting to see what happens next.

I have loved each of these books individually and found the story to develop beautifully over the course of the series. Friday is a great main character. This is not your ordinary superhero tale. Once you start book one, you will want to read the rest. This box set is a must read. Look forward to reading more from this author.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

Hero High: Figure in the Flames contains the first three books in the Hero High series by Mina Chara. This is a Young Adult fantasy adventure story set in a ‘superhero’ high school- full of action, adventure, friendship, coming of age, danger, discovery, superheros, super-villains, reality TV, fame, responsibility, angst, and a little romance. The story set in a near future world, Icon City, and follows Friday Fitzsimmons on an incredible adventure.
When 17 year old Friday develops ‘powers’ she is sent to Hero High, where reality TV and superhero high school collide- and where Friday’s adventures begin. Get set for things to get interesting…..
So, if you love young adult reads with fantasy, adventure, and superheroes- then this is definitely a series you won’t want to miss.

Thank you, Mina Chara!

5 out of 5 stars

This is an amazing set of books. I loved reading each one. The author does an amazing job of pulling you into each story and I didn’t want to put them down. The stories are fast-paced and entertaining. I loved reading about the character of Friday Fitzsimmons. She and others are part of a reality TV channel where good fights evil. I enjoyed reading about the interactions/bantering between many of the characters that interact with Friday. Then there are those whose motives are in question, such as the man who calls himself The Figure in The Flames. The author also does a wonderful job of world-building and keeping the stories interesting. There are twists that I didn’t see coming and I found myself turning pages to see what happens next. The stories include action, danger, and even a bit of romance. Don’t miss out on the exciting and addictive stories in this box set. I highly recommend them.

This is a boxset of the first three books in the Hero High series. It is a young adult series that brings you into a world of the supernatural. Friday is a girl that is supernaturally gifted and she trains at a special university. This boxset will take her through adventures that involve romance, she needs to figure out who she is and she needs to prove herself. The characters are really strong and make the story engaging. I had no problem connecting to them as well as they had me turning pages fast to the end. I highly recommend reading this boxset to find out what happens with Friday.

One in a Thousand People on Planet Earth Have Supernatural Powers.

Friday Fitzsimmons is just trying to keep her family business afloat when she discovers a dormant power she didn’t even know she possessed.

Forced to train at a school for the supernaturally gifted, she’s thrust into the glamour of Icon City, a haven for those with powers. The citizens tune in every day to watch their own reality TV channel where good fights evil for the city’s soul.

Friday, like hundreds of other “gifted” students, takes part in the show, but not everyone choses to use their powers for good, like the mysterious masked boy Friday keeps seeing, or the man on fire who calls himself The Figure In The Flames.

Struggling to support her family while coming to terms with her own guilt, Friday finally falls in love, but as events unravel she is forced to question her heart more than once. This may just be her chance to prove herself, but it’s not that simple.

It never is, is it?

The second installment of Mina Chara’s series Hero High was good. The story itself was short but it packed a lot of action into the little package. Friday continues to grow as a superhero and a person. The book was interesting and fun. Mina Chara has created a very interesting universe with Hero High. I look forward to reading more from her.

I am quickly starting to love Mina Chara’s series Hero High, but the cliffhanger endings are killing me. Just finished book 2 Anger, and am anxiously awaiting reading book 3. This book is very short, and I read it in 1 night. While I highly recommend this series, I think you should just wait and read them all at once, because the ending is a terrible place to stop the book. It’s right in the peak of the action. This story continues Friday’s life at Hero High, and picks up where book 1 left off. There isn’t a lot I can tell you without possible spoiler alerts… Friday comes in contact with the new Dr. Dangerous again, and things escalate quickly. She is still looking up to her mentor Sense. And the weird love/hate relationship between Friday and Ashley continues. Bring on book 3!

Anger (Hero High Book 2) by Mina Chara is a wonderful continuation of the Hero High series. The plot thickens and Friday has to figure out who her friends are.

  1. Anger (Hero High, #2)Anger by Mina Chara
    My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Anger is the second book in the Hero High series. This story follows on from where book one finishes, so I would definitely recommend reading that first.
The story continues to follow Friday Fitzsimmons as she begins her second year at Hero High. Hero High is a school for superheroes in training, but also a reality TV show. This story sees many recurring characters from book one, which I always enjoy, and some new faces too.
I love the character of Friday, and this second instalment helps you get to know her even better. She is strong and fierce, yet vulnerable enough to make her extremely relatable. When Friday finds herself battling unknown bad guys and threats, she doesn’t know who she can trust or turn to. She must rely on her own judgements to solve this mystery.
If you are a fan of Young Adult, superhero or futuristic books then this will definitely tick those boxes.

A perfect young adult book especially for those who are just entering into the young adult genre and want to ease into a story that flows easily.

This is the second instalment of the Hero High series and starts just where the first book left off so although you could follow it fine without reading book one, I’d encourage you to read book one first so you can really delve into life at Hero High and get to know the characters better.
Anger didn’t disappoint, it followed well from book one and the story intensified, I enjoyed following the characters development and got pulled in quickly to keep reading and see what was going to happen. I love the descriptions in Mina Charas’ writing a lot, they really bring the story to life.

A very enjoyable read

This is one of my favorite young adult series I have read in a long time. I absolutely love a good fantasy romance but this author exceeded all my expectations. This is the second book from the Hero High series. You need to read the first book in order to understand what is going on. I was so excited when I got this book I stopped everything and started to read it immediately. I could not put this book down until the last page and now I want more. I can’t wait to see what will happen next to these amazing characters.

Friday is getting used to her new school for superheroes. She is still wondering what the guy that was on fire was all about. Friday is now being followed everyday and she now met a new super villain. She wants to know where they came from but it is very dangerous. Friday is starting to believe that production is behind some of this but why? Will Friday be able to trust anyone or are they all lying to her?

This is the second book in the Hero High series by Mina Chara. This is not a standalone, you must read the first one so you know what’s going on. In this story Friday keeps trying to figure out what’s going on with Dr. Dangerous, and who he really is. Friday is trying to figure out what’s happening at hero high, and who she can trust. Going through her normal day to day routine and then on the side trying to discover what everyone seems to be hiding. This is a good second installment of this story, and I can’t wait for the third one!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Anger (Hero High Book 2) by Mina Chara is an excellent continuation of Friday’s story. At the end of book 1 Friday is left with more questions than answers. Who is the figure in the flames? and how can Doctor Dangerous be back when the whole world knows he died at the hands of the Captain? Friday is seeking answers to her questions however, this might mean her own safety is in danger. Couple this with the horrid Veronica and Friday’s crippling anxiety, she is really having a difficult time. I am really enjoying this series, I like the way it switches between flashbacks of Friday’s life to the present day when she is being interviewed. I also feel that you get to know the other characters more in this book as Friday further develops her friendships. This book is a nice quick read but has definitely left me with lots of questions (and theories) that I hope are answered in book 3.

Anger High is the second installment of hero High written by Mina Chara and I have mixed feelings about this book. The series and is set in the near future world of Icon City, a place filled with powered one-percenters. The characters are great, and the plot is different. You don’t know who the good guy or bad guy is.

Friday Fitzsimmons is in her second year of hero high. She is living at the superstructure its risky and invasive, especially when trying to figure out where two new real super villains come from. I can’t let the cameras see what I’m doing, because I’m pretty sure they’re in on it, and people are getting hurt.

Will Friday figure out the truth before its to late? Will she be able to trust any of her peers? Are they out to get her? Will she make it past her second year of hero high?

You will have to read this book/series to find out. I highly recommend you read the books in order.

Anger is the second book in the Hero High series by Mina Chara. This installment starts where the first book in the series, Denial, ends. I love these short installments that are easy and fast to read. The excitement continues in this book, with Friday continuing her training and learning how to be a SuperHero. This book is fast paced and the characters are well defined. This isn’t my usual genre, but I have really got hooked this this series. I can’t wait to read the next book.

☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
Second best Coming of Age fantasy for the young adults.

Hero High is at it again. Follow along as you meet Figure in Flames and Dr. Dangerous. You will join in with new characters as the team and start a new adventure. The main characters stay in the back as they know they are being watched. Come on into the superstructure, just be careful! I refuse to give you any spoilers as I feel you will enjoy the story.

Mina Chara is the author in this fantasy romantic novel written for our teens and young adults. She is clever in her writings as her target is those coming of age young adults. Even as an adult I truly enjoyed this story. One I can safely introduce to the teens around me. Love the story, love the characters and romantic fantasy. We can all relate to this fiction. Job well done Mina Chara!

Anger by Mina Chara a five-star read that won’t leave you angry. This is number two in the Hero High series and the setting of Icon city is well done, it suits the type of story and the characters well. This is the story of Friday Fitzsimmons and her second year of Hero high; she just gets more of a sublime character, watching her struggle with fitting in and anxiety, just makes the daily struggle a little easier knowing that others face it as well. This story will take your breath away, you will be kept guessing all the way through, my heart was pounding so hard at one point I didn’t realise how long I had held my breath, but I was so swept up in the story I couldn’t stop myself.

The characters are complex, relatable and pulled me in from page one. It’s well written and paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking anything. I’m excited to see where the author takes readers next. Four big stars for this great story.

I enjoyed this because it is not only a quick read but it is full of story, character, and world building. This is a read which flows well and I didn’t want to put it down. Figure in the Flames and the copycat Dr Dangerous are back causing problems and Captain Fantastic might become a mentor. The problem is who can she trust. It seems there is someone out to make her fall. I really am enjoying the continuing story and look forward to more in this series.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Anger is book 2 in the Hero High series and is set in the near future world of Icon City which is a haven for ‘powered one-percenters’. The story centres around Friday Fitzsimmons who is now in her second year at Hero High which is a famous school for people with powers. However Hero High is not just a school for trainee superheroes it is also a reality TV show and one of many on the Hero Channel. Friday discovers that she can not trust the ‘Hero Channel’ and that someone is lying to her but does not know who. Friday must stop the real super villains along with her hero, Captain Fantastic but is not sure who the actual bad guys are.
Although this is a short story it packs a lot in and it has a fast paced storyline and the world building is great and really pulls you in so you feel totally immersed in Icon City. I like Friday as the main character as she is a strong and independent young lady but she is also very relatable as she suffers from anxiety but does her best to hide this especially from the cameras. I found the introduction at the beginning helpful explaining how Icon City came about and also a brief recap on book one which means you could read this as a standalone story. Personally I think you would appreciate the story better having read book one, Denial. It was an exciting read and a good second book, I look forward to future books in the Hero High series.

If you liked Denial, then you will love Anger. Mina Chara picks up right where Denial ended. I love the characters with her story. There is one small problem, you do not know who are the bad people and who are good people. One way Mina Chara held my attention is that every time I think I know who is who here comes a detail to deter me from finding out the answers I seek. It is a fast pace story. It kept me at the edge of my seat. The mystery and adventure will keep you wanting more and more. I highly recommend reading Denial first so you can get all of the groundwork for the characters as well as Icon City. Then I would read Anger to see what else is going on.

This is the second book in the series, and i liked it just as much as the first book. This is a young adult story that kept me turning page after page. This story has action, mystery and villains. Who is who? Who is watching? You don’t know exactly what is happening, and hopefully the MC finds out before its to late. I enjoyed the the story and the mystery of it and i am looking forward to reading more of this series and more by this author.
I would recommend this to a friend!
