[27] Okay, okay, the romance. John has been in love with Quin since they met. Quin has been in love with John since they met. Childhood love is beautiful, but if there is one thing that I've learned, from YA books, it's that if there is love in the beginning of the series, there will almost always be another love interest introduced. Shinobu has always been there, and has always loved Quin, but she never paid him much attention. But they're running from John, and then Shinobu leaves her memory-less. Confusing, eh? Quin doesn't remember anyone, but comes to know that John is not really a good guy, and Shinobu is trying to help her. The problem with trying to write a traditional "high" fantasy-type book, but having it take place in the modern (or slightly in the future) world is that who cares about a magic ATH-uh-may that cuts through space (like a . . . knife *rolls eyes*) when you could just take an airplane like a normal assassin? I mean, there are "air cars" that presumably fly, and I'm pretty sure they still have normal airplanes in addition to the weird airship thing that one of the characters lives on (and if they don't, that's stupid). And yeah, a magical cuts-through-space-like-a- Stargate-wormhole-knife is slightly more convenient . . . but only slightly. *shrugs*

Not only was the plot incredible, so were the characters. Because the story spans over such a long time, there is a lot of character development. I can honestly say that by the middle/end of this book, you wouldn’t recognize half of the characters. My favorite ones? Shinobu and Maud/the Young Dread. Those two characters were the most fascinating to me. I fell in love with Shinobu’s character and story! For the role of Kahlan Amnell, Raimi credits Tapert for finding Bridget Regan, whom he saw on one of the audition tapes they received. Raimi thought that she grounded the fantastical situations by being "very human and real", and recalled, "I was moved by her and I believed her and I thought we couldn't ask for anything more." [12] Like Horner, Regan had not read the books prior to the audition. [15] Horner and Regan were brought together for a "chemistry reading" in Los Angeles, upon which the producers concurred that they had found their two lead actors. [12] Filming [ edit ]

Half third cousins." She whispered, her lips close to his ear, "Hardly related at all."I'm sorry but the MOMENT there's any familial relationship - I don't care how perfect he is or whatever excuse you want to use but it's gross. So gross. "Did you want you kiss me in the basement?"

Drew Tyler Bell as James Stanton, Will's older and more arrogant brother who dates Maggie and causes Will to be jealous. He teases Will with the fact he got to date Maggie at the beginning of the film. Hungry for more: YA novel is the right mix of fantasy, adventure". The Cecil Whig. March 28, 2016 . Retrieved July 16, 2021. I think this will come later in the series, but I wanted more in terms of the Seeker business. There was a lot going on in this book, and I hope that the true nature and duty of a Seeker is exposed more in book two. Even though this series has gotten a lot of criticism, you should give The Sword of Truth a chance and read at least the first book, Wizard’s First Rule. You will be introduced in a new engagin fantasy world. The suggestion here is to start reading this series and decide if they are worth reading or not. Who wrote The Sword of Truth books

This book could have been so very good. Great premise and the characters aren't bad. It's that I can't figure out what the hell is going on. You have the main character Quin that is training to be a Seeker. What is a Seeker? Who the hell knows. I thought at first it was something good..then it seemed like it was something bad. I never got my answers..so I'm a shallow gal and it pissed me off. Then her love interest John knew what was in store for her..Did he tell her? Nope, Nada, Nil. I don't like that John. *insert mean look* Christianity merged the Prophet and Philosopher creating theology and a new society. Monasteries arose in the West and Boorstin considers them the most influential institutions of the time, both preserving and spreading knowledge. From them came the university, yet another peculiarly Western institution. Finally, the Protestant Reformation gave individuals and not only institutions power, transforming congregations into participants. Humanism and democracy were its outgrowths. In this book we have Quin who has undergone years of training to become what she thought was a very noble and honorable position, a Seeker. She later discovers that her skills were going to be used in a less than noble manner. For years she was lied to and no one appears as they seem. Quin sets out to make things right as she travels to many places in very magical ways. A Seeker does exactly as the name implies; he seeks. He seeks the answers to things. Things of his own choosing. If he is the right person, he will seek the answers that will help others, not just himself. The whole purpose of a Seeker is to be free to quest on his own, to go where he wants, ask what he wants, learn what he wants, find answers to what he wants to know, and if need be, do whatever it is the answers demand.” Zeddicus Zu’l Zorander Albiniak, Paige (November 4, 2008).

Quin wants nothing to do with her respective role of wielding the athame. During a fallout and escape in which she's wounded, she loses her memory and it isn't until she finds herself in the crosshairs of people trying to find and use her for her abilities that she begins to put he pieces together and stand up and fight/use what abilities she has. Except it feels hollow, because you're not really 100% certain what she's fighting for or against. So much of the book is setting up mysterious things but without any sort of payoff for the audience.

The series is a very fascinating collection of books following the story of the adventures of the bears. It was written in the same style as the Warriors series. It brings out the theme of decline in the habitats and the environment of the bears with their struggles to survive. Human beings are portrayed as the main cause of the struggle having been responsible for destroying the bears’ habitats and being harsh to them. The series is characterized by adventures which are filled with hardship, hunger and loss of family. Therefore, the series in its own way tries to show the dangers of global warming and its effects on the environment as well as wildlife.
