Synopsis
‘Zoey lives.’ Neferet’s voice was flat, cold, lifeless. ‘She does. What will
happen next?’ ‘It is quite simple. I will ensure Zoey is drawn back to
Oklahoma. There, on my own terms, I will complete
the task you failed.’
Exonerated
by the Vampyre High Council and returned to her position of High Priestess at
Tulsa’s House of Night, Neferet has sworn vengeance on Zoey. But Zoey has found
sanctuary on the Isle of Skye and is being groomed by Queen Sgiach to take over
for her there. Being Queen would be cool, wouldn’t it?
And
what about Stevie Rae and Rephaim? The Raven Mocker refuses to be used against
Stevie Rae, but what choice does he have when no one in the entire world,
including Zoey, would be okay with their relationship? Does he betray his
father or his heart?
Thoughts
So this book was interesting, and yet it went on
about nothing that seemed to be letting the books end, and it had things that
needed to be there – If you understand all that.
Really it bored me, and put my thoughts back into
the series needs to end, or this problem in it needed to be resolved and let
something else happen. But as the end fits it doesn’t look like it will for a
bit yet, American’s and there need to only stop when no one will read them
anymore.
So it’s got Neferet’s voice in it, lets you see what
a twisted bitch she is. Also has a great ending, or at least this part, ending
to the Raven mockers story with Stevie Rea, though like Stark I really like him
as a character and hope they don’t by pass him in any way.
Though I’m not really looking forward to the next
book, and yet I strangely am.
This Read: this is the last one of
the books that I have, and clearly I’ve not gone on. My interest in the book
left me the moment that I thought it. Really, I’m over the series. And
therefore I know that I haven’t made these the best reviews, or even, maybe,
got you wanting the read them.
But that’s a simple fix. Or at least I’m going to do
a quick why
·
It’s about vampires that are out to the world, and yet they are all
pushed into schools to learn. It’s a good thing, and I really do like the idea
around the world and school.
·
The teachers are all good, it even takes you as long as it take Zoey to
see the things that are going on around her.
·
Zoey has a group of friends and are great, though typical, they aren’t the
cool kids.
·
It’s got its one myth and legends around them that’s simple to follow through
the series. And it’s set in a day to day, minute to minute time line with Zoey
being the POV, which changes later in the series to have a anyone and everyone
that needs a voice. Only Zoey is in first person.
·
Zoey gets into a complete love triangle that changes and shifts and
ends with three boys wanting her.
o
This kinda changes at the end of this book, and yet as far as I know it
doesn’t. or more so the story line comes up that was there before just for a
person that was there that isn’t.
o
It’s real complete and overly dramatic, I suppose.
·
There is a clear cut and yet burry gray line threw the story of good
and evil and another thing that’s has a question mark at the end of this book. What’s
the deal with the white bull?
·
The powers are cool and though it’s mostly centred on her friends at
first, it comes out for others and more so it shows up what they are and how
they work in a cool way that really makes the magic jump out of the page. Which
really does make the book.
·
Um....
Okay, so I’m dry and yet I know there’s much more
things that should be said. It’s a good series if it’s your thing. It’s just
not mine. not only is a YA book with a first person all the way threw, but the
storyline drags a little and it’s so full of drama that I started to get
annoyed at the character I was following fast then the pages went by.
Though if you’ve found yourself a little bit interested
in the series you should pick it up from your library and see what you think.
