Audiobook- narration 5 stars, Story a strong 3 starsI really didn't think I'd like this. I'm not a fan of Gladiators/battle/fight stories. This one offered something more an interesting world with characters I couldn't help but want more of. I enjoyed it but not enough to continue the series.
Fallon is the daughter of a proud Celtic king, the sister of the legendary warrior Sorcha, and the sworn enemy of Julius Caesar. When Fallon was a child, Caesar’s armies invaded her homeland, and her beloved sister was killed in battle. Now, on the eve of her seventeenth birthday, Fallon is eager to...
There's nothing glaringly terrible about this book, and it has a lot of things happening, which kept me reading and engaged. I just... wasn't into it. Maybe it's because, after an intro about Fallon's total warrior prowess, she makes a bunch of stupid decisions that demonstrate that she's not as gre...
EHHH. Not a fan of this one. For the most part I was bored and didn't really get into the characters. I can see a lot of people enjoying this action packed adventure with a pretty bad ass female character. I just wasn't all that into the kidnapping/slavery storyline as well as the added romance. Not...
3 starsI love books set in ancient time periods, so I was frothing to get my hands on The Valiant. Fallon is a female gladiator. What could be more exciting? A lot, apparently. This wasn’t awful, but it wasn’t what I was hoping for, and I almost DNF’ed it at the beginning, but I persevered. Ulti...
Review originally posted on my blog, Caffeinated Bibliophile.I seriously had to take about 12 hours to calm myself down after I finished this before I could even try to start this review. To be completely honest, I’m almost a little sad that I’ve read it already, because now I’m going to have to wai...
Questa è la bugia che Kelley Winslow continua a ripetersi per proteggere il ragazzo che ama da un potere di cui lui non è consapevole. Dal pensiero è passata all'azione: ha deciso di lasciarlo. Sconvolto, Sonny si rifugia in un paradiso per Creature Perdute, un luogo mistico nascosto nelle viscere d...
when you hear about a book of half-minute horrors for children, you kinda just shrug your shoulders and decide that you'll read it as a quick, easy filler in between books, right? but here's the thing: you're wrong. this book was absolutely not a buffer. it was actually creepy - and i say this as so...
***This review has also been posted on The Social PotatoI read Starling over two years ago and while I was taken by the book it took me a long time to finally pick up the sequel, which I did when I saw the trilogy finale on Edelweiss. I was ready to dive back into the world Livingston had created bu...
Ho comprato questo libro parecchi mesi fa, ma ogni volta che facevo per iniziarlo qualcosa mi faceva perdere la voglia di leggerlo.. poi mi sono finalmente decisa a iniziarlo per bene e l'ho finito in due giorni. Mi ha ricordato un po' "La fata delle tenebre", di Holly Black.. nonostante tutto il te...
