These books are like candy. They are filled with action and movement. The characters are threadbare and lean heavily on historic understandings. It's fun and light and makes you want to investigate history and myths. I call it a win.

Again, have I mentioned before that I hate Josh? I can't believe how this book ended!
Let's start by, I'm kind if overwhelmed of how much characters this book is getting into. It's just so cool.
I really liked this book, it's really interesting and it keeps you into it. I love the fact that he god with all this history and introduces it to you. And this for young adults, so they'll learn it and I just think is so awesome of him to do that.
Now, the story, I'm getting into the point where my hate for Josh is starting to make me cry. Ok, no. Not literally. But for real, he's such an idiot. I just want someone to slap him really hard…in the face…with a chair…made of steel. Next thing, Sophie is starting to piss me off too. This two…I'm just tired of they been so distrustful. Then there's Scatty and company. This is so cool. I'd like I see how that turns out. Now, the Flamels. Well, kill me or not, I really think they're good people and that everybody is really treating them horrible. Like, live them alone men. They're dying. And I still live Maquiavelo and Billy the Kid. I love them as a group. They're so funny together. Then there's Dee and Virginia. For some reason I like Virginia but Dee, that I used to like and think he was cool, now I just hate him too. For real, cut it. Just die men. And I hate the fact that Aiofe died. Nooooo! I wanted family reunion between sisters. But whatever.
In resume, the book is good but I'm just so tired of Josh! Hopefully something so horrible will happen to him and then he'll realize how much of an idiot he is. Or maybe that he'll do this really cool thing. But I don't have my hopes up.

Good Read
Not as good as the previous books. The others had more exciting moments. Still I did enjoy it and it did continue the story.
