Sharon | 8 comments OK so...these chapters had more "action" in them. and were a little more interesting. Mythology is my thing so having more myths or people from myths in them (gods/goddesses etc) were interesting. like seeing them rather than hearing about them. I liked Scathach she seems cool as a character, though I keep seeing her as older than she is..uhmm the twins are a tad annoying and taking this way too calmly and are way too quite to be two curious teens..also the author has a tendancy to repeat things such as what they're pare ts do, that they're twins etc. as if he's trying to elude to their greatness by pounding useless stuff into your brain... :/

I agree there was more "action" but the SUV going 80 mph was unrealistic even in a fantasy book. Normally when I read I picture the book in my mind like a movie. With this scene I kept hitting a roadblock and in the end no images came to mind. The twins and their I know what the other is thinking so I look at them is getting old. I don't care for the repetitiveness of it all. I see a goth chick when I imagine Scathach(Scatty) but her personality is that of an old lady so I get that you keep picturing her as old. So far I'm still eh with this book. I think that I do like Pernelle more and more. I wish there was more to do with her at this point. Hope she's more in the book later on :/
