After reading the first book in the series, I had to read the second. Simply because I can't stand unfinished series. I'm serious, I can't... It's like walking in a desert and suddenly finding a fresh bottle of water and only taking one tiny little sip of it. Impossible right?
Okay anyway, back to the book. I'm not sure what I have to say about this book. It feels like very little happening over A LOT of pages... I love Shannon though and she does make a great character and she cares so much! But the story feels like it's spread to thin over too many pages. It would've been a lot nicer to read if it'd been shorter so the time between action doesn't feel so long and start being boring.
A lot of people have gone about the forums to smack this book down saying "sex sells". That is so not true for this book. I guess that a lot of P.C. Cast readers (or atleast the ones that have read the Goddess Summoning series) expect a realy juicy book with little story line in it. I must say they probably got a little bit disapointed, but when you read the book for the story, it's a nice book and you'll enjoy it.
But as I said in the first book, you'll probably want to read it in pieces and not all at once. (Although that's not what I did, I just started in it today and read it). What I kept feeling in this book, was that it was easy to put it down. Like I was in the story but it was easy to get back out of it, if that makes any sense to any of you.
I also felt as if my bond with ClanFintan was just disapearing; People who've read the book will understand what I mean. He just sort of feels like a stranger at the end of the book.
This book was so much better then I expected reading all the other reviews on loads of websites saying this book should've never been made etc.
This book gets a 7.5/10.
P.S.: the back cover of the book totaly presented a wrong name for Rhiannon, calling her Rhiana... Should this even be possible? Seriously debating taking the points for this book down because of this....
