Simmi is a great character as well. She is strong but seems to lack a little confidence. I can't wait to see how she does in book two. I hope she has gained some of said confidence. :)
Shapri reminds me of myself! There is no way I would believe in all that mumbo jumbo right from the start either. I mean geez! She did great in the end of the book when it really counted though.
Alex's dad caught me off guard completely! I NEVER would have guessed before he came out with it! That was nothing short of an AMAZING twist from Emlyn.
All in all, I can't wait for the next book! Emlyn did a great job with her characters and the story line. Everything was consistent and I didn't even have to re-read anything to make sense of it! This is absolutely a great book. I hope it comes out in paperback or hardcover so that I may add it to my actual bookshelf...that's where all of the GREAT ones end up!
