The Throne of Fire by Rick Riordan
4.0

Bit of a slow start, but once things got going, I couldn't put it down. It had been a few weeks since I'd read the first one, and upon starting this book, I was actually worried I'd accidentally skipped a book, because it sort of drops you right in the middle of the action, and there are brand new characters that you don't get the background on right away, which was confusing.

But once I caught my bearings it was all smooth sailing, so to speak. Fun, quick read with an interesting plot and intriguing characters. I love that Sadie is such a badass, but it kind of feels like she is way better at basically everything than Carter, which I don't mind because Yay women! but it just seems a bit strange, because it sort of feels like the story is pushing for Carter to be some kind of great leader person, so one would think every once in awhile he wouldn't need to be saved by his sister...

Def planning on reading the third book soon!
