My sister gave me this book (as well as the next two) and I really had no notion of what kind of book it was, apart from the fantasy aspect... my sister and I share a love of fantasy stories.
At first I wasn't too keen. It was a little too weird for my liking, but then I just clicked with it and started to really feel for the characters - particularly Darius who had such demons to deal with (emotional / mental demons, that is).
I found myself completely drawn to the world of Atlantis, although Gena Showalter's version of Atlantis is a far cry from how I would have imagined it. Her world was fascinating though. I will certainly read the next in the series.
Perhaps I am a bit of a prude though, as I just felt like I couldn't connect with the extensive sex scenes. I felt like there was just a bit too much of it in this book... I could delve further into this subject but I'd rather not embarrass myself!!
All in all, an entertaining read.
I do hope readers will say that about my books. :0)
ReplyDeleteI hadn't heard of this book, it sounds intriguing... I might just have to add it to my TBR pile.
