Decent Start

I have been a fan of Greek myth ever since I found the section in the back of my 6th grade lit. book, so I had to give Nikki Glass a chance. I think the author could have done so much more with this first novel, and though I was not blown away I will still have to listen to the second before calling it quits. She has some really good material and this series could turn out to be great.

Incredibly Odd

I was given this book by someone who thought I wuld like it. They were so very wrong. I couldn't get through the first 5 chapters. It was just a waste of time. I am going to give it 2 stars simply because they tried something new by using the theme of gods.

Chosen because of Sophie E.!

Book One is a lot of character and story development and nothing else....boring. I hate it because I love Sophie Eastlake, but there are much more interesting paranormal listens out there!
