Description
The hunter becomes the hunted.
Framed for the murder of a high ranking member of the Unseelie Court of Fae, Steve Dore–also known as Diomedes, Guardian and protector of mankind–goes on the run. He’s determined to uncover the real culprit and clear his name.
But the assassination may be the beginning of a more sinister plot that involves not just the Fae and Humankind, but all the races of the world. And what if the real assassin is a boogeyman even the Fae don't believe is real?
This book can be read as a standalone.
Advance Praise
"The plot is fast moving ... Chaos Unbound is full of non-stop action ... The plot is a roller-coaster ride of twists and turns with the introduction of many unsavory fae monsters and a few unexpected allies. This addition to The Metis Files series is entertaining on many different levels and it was easy to become enthralled with all the elements." ~Big Al's Books and Pals

I’m finished, Lord above I’m finally done! My goodness, that book seemed to go on forever. It’s not even a bad book. The writing is fine. It’s funny and the author seems to understand military stuff well enough for it to read as realistic. But the book is so darned long and it’s just running and fighting nonstop. I got so tired of the main character and his perfect friends killing things and being told about this gun or that tactical vest, or this military vehicle or that battle in 82BC or this mythical creature or that country and conflict. There was no time for any character development in and amongst all the running around, fighting and being attacked.
The blurb says it can be read as a standalone and it can. I haven’t read book one and I followed this one just fine. But I definitely felt that I was missing something in having not read the preceding book. The characters refer to the events of book one and the events of this one tie into it. Plus, I kept thinking, as new people were being introduced at 80% into the book, that all the character development must have been left there, since it wasn’t here.
The plot is pretty simple, a man is wrongly accused of a crime and must find the real culprit on order to clear his name. I’ll say this book was ok, but it didn’t need 350+ pages to tell the story. If you like non-stop action though, this might be a good book for you.

This was the first book I have read by Brian Leon, even though this is the second book in the Metis Files. I found the book to be well-written, have very interesting characters, and lots and lots of non-stop action. I do have to admit at times I wish the main character Steve would have had time to slow down and we could have gotten to know the characters a tiny bit better through dialogue. I don’t feel I was missing too much with the non-stop action, which I *did* like, but I still wanted a little more dialogue, as that is one of the things I like. Besides, that character interaction could have happened in the first book and I could have missed it, so it could be me. However, I did really enjoy this book, will read the first one in the series, and I am anticipating more because I really did enjoy the characters and writing. Highly recommend! Thanks to NetGalley and Red Adept Publishing for the e-copy which I voluntarily reviewed. This same review will be posted on both Goodreads and Amazon.

This is the second book in The Metis Files series but can be read as a standalone.
Full of non stop action, Chaos Unbound is definitely not my usual kind of read. Going outside my 'comfort zone' paid off this time with an entertaining read!
Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher, 3*.
