Some parts of this novel were really good- Roth’s writing has improved, Sloane as a main character is interesting, and the first fourth of the novel sets up a super cool story. But after the that first fourth, the novel takes a big twist and I had a difficult time getting into it after that. Although it was unique, I can’t really say I loved the book as a whole; it turned out very middle of the road for me. There is romance that develops that I actually enjoyed, but even that was a little ho-hum near the end. ( ) Marking this one as DNF (did not finish). I wanted to like it, I really did. Roth is working with a very interesting idea, and a pretty unique way of explaining a magical event. I liked the idea of it being mostly what happened after, however, I just couldn't get into it. I got to around page 200 before deciding that I didn't want to bother finishing it. I didn't find myself drawn to any of the characters or interested at all in what was going on with them. Maybe I'll pick it up some other time, but for right now I'm gonna move on to something else. WOW. Reading this makes me want to re-read divergent by Roth! Well written and just SO different than other things I have read. I loved the fact that was started the story after the large event occured. Getting the information through news articles? incredible. A morally grey main character? LOVE IT! aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Fantasy.
Fiction.
HTML:"A hugely imagined, twisty, turning tale that leads through the labyrinths of magic and war to the center of the heart." —Diana Gabaldon THE LAST THING SHE WANTED WAS TO GET BACK INTO THE HERO GAME THE VILLAIN: The Dark One—probably not fun at parties, definitely cool with murder—was running around North America engulfing whole cities in supernatural chaos and destruction. THE HEROES: Five Chosen Ones—ordinary strangers with nothing in common—were recruited by the government because they fit the narrow criteria of a prophecy made by [redacted]. You know the rest...heroes fought villain, heroes defeated villain, and everything went back to normal. Only...not so much. Now, it's ten years later, and Sloane Andrews, recovering Chosen One, has discovered that all the fame, gratitude, and parade floats in the world can't erase what she endured—what she had to do—to take down the Dark One. All she wants now is to be left alone, but that doesn't seem to be in the cards. As it turns out, that plan for annihilation set in motion by the Dark One? It's not finished yet. Last time, Sloane saved the day with a magical needle and a can-do attitude. This time, she's fresh out of both. "A stunning thriller/fantasy/sci-fi chimera like nothing I've read before." —Blake Crouch. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
