It didn't have the same passion and urgency as Pawn and was drawn out until Kitty reached Elsewhere. Where in Pawn she was sassy and fierce, in Captive she seemed sheepish and privileged.īenji continues to play the gentle, doe eyed boyfriend while Knox still remains the mysterious and stoic rebellion leader. Only aiding the cause if her own demands were met. Living as Lila seemed to have afforded her the social status that the Blackcoats are fighting to abolish. She constantly demanded attention, not willing to sacrifice her own ego for the thousands of the oppressed. Kitty seemed reluctant to help the rebellion, bitter that she was forced to attend lavish parties as Lila while Knox attended the underground meetings of the Blackcoat rebels. What left me disappointed, was the lack of character development.

It wasn't until I saw a group of prisoners running towards is with weapons drawn that I understood. These are the lowest members of society, where the only way out is death. Not as engaging as Pawn, but Captive takes us from the lush surroundings of the Hart empire, to the walled city of Elsewhere as Kitty is imprisoned. Unless Kitty can find the evidence to prove that Daxon too has been masked, the rebellion will stall and she'll lose leverage over her freedom she so desperately craves.

Benji is now working as Knox's assistant, until Daxon realises his connection to Kitty. After being on the verge of death, he seemingly remembers Kitty's betrayal, while Kitty was rallying supporters for their cause all over the country. Augusta is dead, and Kitty knows that Daxon isn't who he claims to be. Captive picks up shortly after Pawn, where Kitty has now succumbed to living as Lila Hart, while the real Lila is living amongst the Blackcoats, assumed dead at the hands of her uncle Daxton.
