More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
From the bestselling author of the "House of Night" series comes the award-winning world of Partholon, rich in goddesses, intrigue and magic. Shannon Parker has finally come to terms with life in the mythical world of Partholon. She's almost forgotten her old life on Earth - especially when she discovers she's pregnant. Then a sudden burst of power sends her back to Oklahoma. Without magic, Shannon can't return to Partholon and needs to find help. Trouble is, it might take the form of a man as tempting as her husband. And along the way she'll discover that being divine by mistake is a lot easier than being divine by choice.

Absolutely loved this series. I haven't read P.C Cast's House of Night books however I may look into reading these in the future. The Parthalon trilogy books (Divine series) are definitely not targeted at YA and are more targeted at adults as they have a more lets say adult theme. These were the first books of P.C Casts that I read and actually opened up the whole world of these books to me for the first time such as Gena Showalter and Kresley Cole so thank you very much P.C for enlightening my world! I absolutely loved the characters in these such as Shannon, Clanfintan and Morrigan and as soon as I could I ordered and read the follow up books Elphames Choice and Brighids Quest although these seem to be more targeted at YA. I have also read all of the Goddess Summoning books from P.C and she is firmly on my list of favourite authors. The Parthalon books are a must read for any P.C Cast book fan.

I really enjoy reading books by PC Cast. They help you to get away from the everyday problems and just relax into a fantasy world.
Very enjoyable, funny and well written book.

The first book in this series is set in a parallel world, and in the second we get to see the heroine, Shannon come back to her own world. The premise is good, and as someone who enjoyed the first novel I was looking forward to meeting all of the characters from Shannons old life. I was interested in reading about the mirror images of the people you are introduced to in book 1. However, the more I read the more surprised I became...the characterisation is sketchy at best, and each and every encounter that Shannon has with the people from her old life is disappointing to say the least. Its as if the author can't be bothered to write about anyone other than Shannon, who I have to say is extremely annoying and self important in this book, and her husbands mirror image - the most boring man on earth.
However, all of this aside, the absolute worst parts of the book for me were the infidelity and the rape of a teenager - both sanctioned by a frankly moronic 'goddess'. The only character that I felt was actually developed in this book was that of Rhiannon, who you do end up feeling sorry for. I didnt read through to the end, but from skimming, I have to say it was as predictable as they get - I could see it coming a mile off and all I could think when it happened was 'good riddance'. I absolutley hated this book and as I have mentioned, had major issues with the infidelity and rape which the author doesnt seem to have had. Can't belive I actually paid for this rubbish - I would never read another book by this author again as I dont think we have the same values. I would avoid this one, especially if you have read the first - it won't live up to expectations.

Very disappointing
Book 1 was not too badly written and had some sort of idea of a fantasy novel crossed with a cheap romance novel. Read more
