The Lost Gate by Orson Scott Card
2.0
This was a weird book. I have mixed feelings but not sure I even liked it. I didn't hate it...I mean the world building was fantastic. The idea was cool and played on a lot of mythology. It just seemed to be too different. Kind of fantasy, not YA but a kid is the main character. This just isn't my usual book.
I liked Danny's story but there were some very weird random things that happened that didn't make sense until later. Also there is a woman who assaulted him which seemed very odd to the story.
Then there was the other storyline which only makes sense if you finish the book, though I had a feeling. It was very odd though as it seemed to not align at all.
I don't think I'll continue the series. It didn't evoke feelings for the characters and that is what really matters to me. I have to be invested in the character.
