The Sorceress: Book 3 (The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel)

The Sorceress: Book 3 (The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel)

By Michael Scott

The third book in Michael Scott's "Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel" series, The Sorceress, kicks the action up to a whole new level. Adding to the series' menagerie of immortal humans ("humani") and mythological beasts, the book picks up where The Magician left off: the immortal Nicholas Flamel (of The Alchemyst) and the twins, Sophie and Josh, have just arrived at St. Pancras international train station in London. Almost immediately, they're confronted with a demonic bounty hunter that immortal magician John Dee has sent their way. At the same time, Dee's occasional cohort, Niccolo Machiavelli, decides to focus his energy on Perenelle Flamel, the Alchemyst's wife, who has been imprisoned at Alcatraz since the beginning of the series. In this book, Perenelle gets a chance to show off her sorcery and resourcefulness, fighting and forging alliances with ghosts, beasts, and the occasional Elder to try and find a way out of her predicament and back to Flamel. Scott is as playful as ever, introducing new immortals--famous figures from history who (surprise!) are still alive. He also adds to the roster of fantastical beasts, which already includes such intriguing foes as Bastet, the Egyptian cat goddess, and the Morrigan, or Crow Goddess. Raising the stakes with each installment, Scott deftly manages multiple story lines and keeps everything moving pretty quickly, making this third book a real page-turner. More than just another piece in the puzzle of the whole series, The Sorceress is an adventure in its own right, and will certainly leave series fans wanting more.

Warriors: The New Prophecy Box Set: Volumes 1 to 6

I read the whole series but I think its a quiet bad book because like I really loved the first series but after the 1st series, the story is kind of out of track. If there was a hero which is Fireheart in the first series, but the next one didn't show any herotic scenes. Plus I really didn't like how the main character changed. To be honest, I recommend you to read only the first series. So I would say: first series: 5 stars 2nd,3rd,4th: 1 star super edition: 4stars

Pillage

Pillage

By Obert Skye

Pillage was alright. What I felt after reading this was that it was a poorly-stitched-together story. First of all, the emotions were not expressed at ALL. Beck says the word "Grow," the ivy grows, and almost no reaction there. Basically: Oh, yeah, I can make plants bow to me at my command, no big deal. So the emotions weren't very realistic. The author did have a more realistic view of Beck's view on Kate, but very unromantic part when he kisses her. If you're actually going to have romance in a book, make it worth it! Worth noting, I didn't feel any sort of attachment to Beck, Kate, Milo, or any of the characters in the book. Third, this book is a bit of a whirlwind, jumping from one event to the next. Fourth, at the end of the book, not much of an epic conflict at all. And since when does the law give in so easily?! I mean, the video of the dragons could have been Photoshopped, for all they know, to cover up an incident where muggers lope into Kingsport and trash the place. On the pro's side: Clean language and easy-reading. 9-11 year olds is all I can recommend this to.
