I loved reading a book where "Lestat" tells the story, but this one was a bit different, he used modern words and spoke without flair. I thought I was reading a cheap copy cat book of Anne Rice's books, but sadly I was wrong. This was a sort of filler book, not really a good story but more of a book to fill in the rest of the stories. None the less it was not THAT bad, I still went through it really fast (mostly cause I was hoping it would get better) but I expected more developments, more background just more.
I read this book so I can show my husband the best spots of my country, but I think it exaggerates many tourist attractions making them seem surreal. I have been to some of the places it mentions and they are far from what is described. Other points of interest are nicely labeled and explained, but I mostly liked the history points behind the attractions. All in all it is not a bad book, but I wouldn't trust it 100%
Great book! Loved seeing the other side of the Greek gods, the intricate stories and the details added to them, the way they thought and felt. Beautiful and sad at the same time.
As my first french book it was a good way to ease into how French books are written. Story wise, it is a children's book, some parts were interesting, some others extremely corny, very religious (if that's your thing, it's fine) but personally describing every good and bad thing that happened in the book as an act of God is farfetched, since clearly it was cause and effect, but then again to each it's own. I took this book as a language learning experience so the story was not as important. The language was easy to understand and sentences were not too difficult or intricate.
