What's with the french?,
By
This review is from: The Glass Mountain (Paperback)
I got this second hand and I'm disappointed. the first book was pretty good, despite the odd flaw in the plot, mostly the bear tribe people. But this . . . it's weird. Things happen randomly convienant (flying ship in the nick of time) the 'evil' guy isn't really evil, just trying to live, (yes three people have to die for that to happen, but i think a lot of people would sacrifice others to have another chance at life, especially when that first life was lived under the control/possession of a goddess and not really his own) and what's with the french sentences? i failed french, and this is a book in ENGLISH so why french sentences that aren't translated? i have no idea what was being said. I liked the characters, as i did in the first one, but the plot is hung on a weak premise, they set off on their adventure based on another weak premise, the big evil is weak and nonthreatening and doesn't seem worth the effort of the book, and everything happens far too convienantly.
Just poor.

This sequel to Children of the Shaman hasn't been published in the US yet but I just had to get it, despite the unfavorable pound:dollar exchange!Rydill masterfully picks up Annat's story five years later, bringing back several characters, adding some new ones, developing each and every one into living, breathing individuals and sets them loose in a world even more amazingly realized than I had hoped for. Highly recommended.

dangerous journey will capture you,

This review is from: The Glass Mountain (Paperback)
I highly suggest that you read this book.It is a journey filled with incredible detail from a very kool writer. This book has exciting young characters who encounter all kinds of fantasy and emotional events as they discover their world/s and their family relationships...the language the author uses is vivid and evokes an imaginative tour that follows the children...I loved this book and the previous book The Children of the Shaman about these charming characters.I cared deeply for both stories,which work on many levels,sharing worthy bloody battle scenes and touching personal encounters..best young adult series I have read this year!!would make an awesome video game too in my opinion
