Review: A fantastic prequel
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 01 13, 2013
This prequel is written in Ethan's point-of-view and takes place mostly prior to the first book of the series. I'm a fan of the series having already read the first two books and so can't judge if this book reads well as a stand-alone or not, because knowledge of what is going to happen infused my reading of the chapters. I already loved Ethan, but I really gained a deeper understanding of his character and the way his mind and gifts work through this book. I found myself smiling and crying at a few points in the book, and I love when a book can pull out those strong emotional reactions. Overall, if you are already a fan of the series, this prequel is a must read! If you aren't already reading this series, then you should be!
