How is the Darkest Fire?

Way different because of who it's about, but getting good. I'm in either chapter 3 or 4.

oh? I'm a little confused...but that's ok.

Oh, it's about the goddess who's bones form Pandora's box and the guardian of hell.

I'm on about chapter 16. It's good, but not as good as the rest of the series. I'll explain more off-line.

Ah, ok. I'm still reading the second Cassandra Palmer book by Karen Chance. It seems her books take me forever to read. It's good, but frustrating.

Understand. I just got hooked by a new book, so I will be reading it obsessively tonight. "World War Z: an Oral History of the Zombie War" is fantastic so far!
