edgarandrewpoe 's review for:
Lore
by Alexandra Bracken
I so deeply wanted to love this, but when the book cover art is better than the book itself you know there are issues. The premise (Percy Jackson meets Hunger Games) has so much promise and the fusion of Ancient Greek mythology and modern day NYC works really well.
Unfortunately let down by flat, pedestrian characters, overwritten clichés, excessive info-dumping, and a rushed, unsatisfying ending. The definition of missed potential. Not to mention where was Hera???
