More action, more people, more events that stress me out! Some characters I am falling out of love with and some I am falling more in love with. There is a sufficient amount of stressful events to make me want to take a break and not rush on to book 4.
This one has to be my favorite book out of the series so far besides The Warlock. I love each character and the development of each one as well. This book still had the same pace maybe a little bit slower than the others but it was a fast read.
Ok, as we go progressing on the series, the books get better. Also my feelings go changing as well. For example, now I don't completely hate Josh, I have some sort of appreciation to him because he left Clarent there and didn't go to pick it up. Also, I know hate Sophie a little bit. It's just that I'm sick of them going against the Alchemist. I don't know why but I still believe that he is good, and all this is just the situation that makes him look a little bad.
Oh, yeah, PERENELLE IS FREE!!! Finally! But now I'm worried about Scatty and Joan. I mean, in the last book I wasn't even worried about her when she was taken to the river, even though she is my second favorite character. But now that she is in another era, I'm dying! I just want her back and Joan too. Also, the King. I really like him, even if he's a little crazy. I though he was cute. And I appreciate Palamedes a little, but at the same time I hate that he's so mean with Nicholas. I like that Morrigan isn't her anymore, but the other two. And they're finally home!!!
I though the book was really good! It goes better as we go by! I can't wait to read the next one!
