I find that most second books in a series tend to struggle a bit, especially if the series has more than three books. This is mainly due to there not being a natural arc for the individual book. Thankfully this was not the case with this book. Gwynne started strong with the first book, and has just bulked up. I will admit I did get lost at some points, but that's because the number of characters can be overwhelming at times. This however is no critism as the majority have their place, and I'm sure the ones that haven't quite done so already, will do in the next two books. Being it on!

I don't recommend this as a stand alone, there's just too much going on from previous books in the reaper series and also the fabulous dragon king series. Saying that, this is the first book I've read in the reaper series and I did enjoy it. I'm going to have to read the others to get a few things straight and I'm loving death, who'd have thought he'd be a she! Talin and Neve is a great story and I hope the evil Bran gets what's coming to him soon

Oh boy! He did it again...a cliffhanger, sort of. There was definitely room left at the end of this book for another series to be sprouted from this one. But, I for one, am not complaining at all! Every single book in every series Riordan has written have been great. This one was no exception at all. I was honestly afraid to read the last hundred pages or so because I was so afraid of what was going to happen or maybe I should say who was going to live or die. I have to say I am not at all disappointed with the conclusion of this series. I hesitate to even say more than that because I don't want to ruin it for all the fans out there. So I think I'll just end by saying I can't wait for the next series...Norse mythology.

I enjoyed this book. I read it as a late teen and I liked the innocence. The storylines are not as complex or involved as other vamp books but I'd advise you, if you're looking for something more adult, you look at maybe the Sookie Stackhouse series by Charlaine Harris or Halfway to the Grave (also a series) by Jeaniene Frost. The characters were not overly mushy or sexual at all really. I think this book is more for the early teen years. I liked it because I could relate, I was a goth teen and that fashion still sticks with me. I also love vampires!
 The rest of the series grows up with the characters and you see them become more complex and find out new things about them. It's kind of kiddish in its simplicity, but as the series has gone on I've enjoyed it more and more.

In my top 5 favourite series'
I've read this book, and series so many times and I never get sick of it! I love Talia and Kael and their whole journey together. I love that I can be right there along with them and watch how the romance blossoms and get the butterflies along the way. Talia is such a strong character that I haven't really seen in any other books before. I love how she just transforms into the strong and beautiful woman we see in the last book. The twists and turns throughout the book are fantastic! Everytime we learn something new about a character we are suprised and no matter how many times I read it I will continue to be suprised! Chanda is a fantastic writer and I love her other series' too but this is by far my favourite.
