Mines of the Minotaur by Julia Golding.



In which Connie finds herself being woken up by Col on the beach. She learns that she has subconsciously been using dangerous powers but Col's warnings to tell someone go unheeded. At a party Col tells Dr. Brock about what is happening to Connie, which makes her mad; she loses control and almost blasts Col, Dr. Brock, and their new friend Rat with a lightning strike! When she gets expelled from the society she goes to the moors with Argand and she hides in a mine where lives a minotaur who tells her all about mythical creatures who live underground who have been abandoned by the Society.

I love Rat and you will too! He is funny, rambunctious and loves to tease Col and Connie. His companion is very cool and is perfect for him. This is my favorite book out of this seires. It is interesting to read how Connie must learn to love all of herself, even the scary or bad parts. The minotaur is very sweet and is very protective of Connie.

This is book three of the Companions Quartet.

Recommended for people who like: hidden powers, minotaurs, and a great story all around.
