I can't possibly convey the impact of this series on me. Marchetta's characters are unforgettable, and beautifully written. It's so hard to believe how much Froi has changed since he was a thief in Sarnak. His journey is my favorite, followed closely by Phaedra and Quintana's. Such a beautiful book, and your lovely review certainly does it justice!

I haven't read it yet, but I've read those kinds of books and sometimes I just give up. It sounds great! <br /><br />Baby names. Hmm, I'd comment on this anyways, but I love them all so much.

I reviewed Froi (my favorite), but never even tried with Finnikin or Quintana. <br />I agree, Marchetta somehow made us care for these characters so deeply that their fate became ours and their joy ours as well. I don't remember ever being invested like this. I'm just hearbroken that it's over.Maja (The Nocturnal Library)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14276646316400863181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6652084782125897918.post-47220492975924328302013-04-23T15:54:51.019-04:002013-04-23T15:54:51.019-04:00Oops, my favourite character was Finnikin, or mayb...Oops, my favourite character was Finnikin, or maybe Froi once I've read his book :)curlypowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15663256160369920564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6652084782125897918.post-64180077097270952192013-04-23T15:53:33.793-04:002013-04-23T15:53:33.793-04:00I've been waiting for this one to come out bef...I've been waiting for this one to come out before I read Froi. I loved finnikin of the rocks sooooo much. You're right about the way Marchetta writes. You just fall into the story and become part of it. The characters are like family.

Thanks for the chance to win. Fingers crossed. Since I haven't started the series my favorite baby name would be Jory..... Not Dorcas for sure. I wont' be needing any baby names anyway since my two kids are here and we are done they are named Risa and Mateus :) Heidi@Rainy Day Ramblingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05984216720423826256noreply@blogger.com
