Reviews

[HekArtemis]

Darker than I thought it would be for a kids book, but then the adaptation of the owls of gahoole is pretty dark so I should've expected it. It's quite compelling, despite having very limited dialogue. It is a very interesting world with a fascinating history and... Mythology? Spiritual system?

I am very curious to see how it continues, so I expect I will continue the series at a later date.

I can certainly understand my daughters love of this series.
