Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Anna

As compelling as this book was to me at first, it didn't follow through. I was deeply impressed with her last book but Fire was drab and at times characterless. It wasn't clique though which i give cudos to. It ended up with the not so handsome man at least. The dramatic overlook of beauty gave a compelling touch but Fire herself was well fireless. She was constantly protected by men. It seemed she had no spirit of her own and though there were many heroic points on her part there was nothing that made me fall in love with her. With so much beauty and so little action on her part. Archer's control over her and her lack of independence was irritating and she in a way seemed 2 dimensional, while she was trying to 'find' herself i sat there wondering when she was finally going ro reveal her personality which i found was layered.
Overall i give a three because i'm very impersonal and demand to catch a character in the first couple of chapters. Not biased just strict.
