I can't agree with everyone that it was action packed straight from the beginning but it did have a very nice action packed ending. You learn so much more about the Loriens in this book. It's amazing to me how much each of the Garde know about their history and how to use certain things...meaning not all of them are privy to everything but you think that they should. Number Four for me seems to be the least informed and has been with his Cepan(guardian) the longest, a Cepan that was willing to teach him. We meet some of the other Garde and get the point of view of Marina, Number 7 and John, Number 4. This was done really well except of course in those cases where there were gigantic climaxes and you had to wait two chapters later to find out what happened because they switched points of views... By the way, Marina has some of the best legacies EVER in my book. She is special indeed.

This was overall a great book and I can't wait for the next book. I think Pittacus (author)said he wanted to write a book for all of the Garde, as he should, but I think at this point with so much action going on and other Gardes being introduced that perhaps short story books should be made by them like Six's book so as to not take away from the war that seems to have already started against the Mogadorians. Six's book was short, sweet and to the point and gave the right amount of background on her.

So yeah... not sure when the next one will be out but I hope it is soon!
