The Awakening by Kelley Armstrong

Here is the summary from Barnes and Noble: "If you had met me a few weeks ago, you probably would have described me as an average teenage girl — someone normal. Now my life has changed forever and I'm as far away from normal as it gets. A living science experiment — not only can I see ghosts, but I was genetically altered by a sinister organization called the Edison Group. What does that mean? For starters, I'm a teenage necromancer whose powers are out of control; I raise the dead without even trying. Trust me, that is not a power you want to have. Ever.

Now I'm running for my life with three of my supernatural friends — a charming sorcerer, a cynical werewolf, and a disgruntled witch — and we have to find someone who can help us before the Edison Group finds us first. Or die trying. "


This book was really good, most sequels tend to spend a lot of time "getting into" what the book is going to be about, but from the second I started reading it, it went RIGHT into the story, it started off basically right where the summoning left off. There is never a dull moment. This book is definately not simmilar to the summoning. There all on the run for there lives from the edison group the whole time and it's a bit more realistic if you ask me. The charecters are developed well and you go deeper into there personalities of who they really are, especially with Derek and Simon, and you see Tori loosen up a little bit. It is a really good book and I highly recommend it, allthough you might want to read the first book in the series though :)
