“Sholto, king of the sluagh, has a bigger role in this novel. But the author seems to write as if we should all know exactly what sluagh, goblins, brownies and sidhe are. And the differences between Seelie and Unseelie. I don’t.”

@ Monica..dont even go there..this is the 7th book. What ass would pick up book seven, try to read it then have the nerve to say what she said in the quote mentioned above.

Once again, if common sense was common then everyone would have it

@Kellah – It is not uncommon for readers to pick up a book that’s part of a series without reading the first one. Some books are structured with that in mind; some aren’t. For example, the Shadowrise series that I just finished reading by Tad Williams offers a synopsis of the previous book in the beginning to help draw new readers.

People like this really irritate me. How can you accurately review a book that is clearly part of a series and not do your homework? As with most book (or movie) series you must read them in order. All of them, not just the ones with the prettiest covers. This is by far one of the most intriguing, creative series I have ever read.

I agree with William. All the characters were explained in the previous book, except maybe Doyle since there’s more to him than meets the eye

If you had read all the books in the series before attempting to rate this one then you would know exactly who the characters are, what they do, what drives them etc etc etc etc.

Please read whatever u need to read before you decide to do this again.
