This book was really awesome. I love that the main character is a girl, because it seems like there are never any books with girls in them that aren't about lip gloss or something....But it's not just that she's a girl, she's a real girl. She doesn't exactly fit in with the popular girls, but instead she has a brain in her head. She's tough, but not like the ridiculous girls you usually read about in fantasy and sci fi novels who are either really slutty or have no emotions whatsoever and go around ripping people's throats out with their teeth. Plus it makes a lot of really neat references to things from mythology and literature and everything, which I personally love because I feel like most authors who write to teenage girls talk down as if we were a bunch of yammering nitwits who's heads can contain nothing that doesn't have justin beiber's face stamped on it. It's got a lot going on, and the end is a KILLER cliff hanger!!!! I can't wait for the sequel...Literally, if you're looking for a way to fill the void that Harry Potter has left in your hearts, this is it. All of my friends are reading it now and LOVE it so far. I'd recommend it to any girl who has a brain in there head, and any guy too if they can get their head out of shoot em up video games and football...Seriously, great book.
Good Points
An awesome melange of mythology, science, and high adventure. A literary work that's smart, emotional, and sensible.
