The Heir

It was actually better than I expected. Then again, I thought it was going to be just horrible, so that's not saying much.

It was okay. It definitely lacked some of the stuff that made me like the first three better. And I still feel the same way that I did before I read this book- it's completely unnecessary. I've said it before and I'll say it again. The One had a clear, and definite ending. This book, and the one after it, is not necessary.

I liked Eadlyn about the same as I did America, although they are vastly different characters. Eadlyn could be very bratty and selfish at times, but I tried to look past that. I felt at every chapter though, she was always saying how she was “the most powerful”, and it got really repetitive and annoying. My dear friend Alex can vouch for this, I promise. I ranted a bit about it to her- sorry, Alex, but not really.

I enjoyed some other characters, such as Kaden and Kile, but some of the boys just seemed very similar to me. Personality and speaking-wise, that is. It was interesting to see Eadlyn's mind-shifts throughout the book, though.

There weren't any real plot twists in the book until the last 15 pages. No, really. There were only two, and they both happened within 15 pages of the end of the novel.

Like I said before, it was okay. I'd give it around a 2.75. Obviously I'll have to suck it up and read the next and (hopefully) last one when it comes out.
