The Necromancer

At this point the most amusing thing about these books is the author's name. Michael Scott. Every time I read that I think of The Office.

If you didn't know if from the beginning of the series you have to know now that the downfall of Josh & Sophie Newman is not Nicholas & Perenelle Flamel. It is Josh.

When being Awakened Sophie is nervous & scared, but determined. Mastering Air, Fire & Water she is amazed, but reserved. She understands the great responsibilities that come with the gifts she's been given and yet wishes she could give them all back. Josh on the other hand says ‘cool' and crows to himself how his fire tattoo is so much cooler than his twins.

So it is no wonder when all is said and done that Dee continually targets Josh to weaken his opponents. And it is no wonder that it works. Josh thinks that he knows better than anyone, including his twin, including the Elders who pass on their knowledge.

There are still two books in left in the series, not counting the two short stories centering around Billy the Kid & Joan of Arc. I imagine we'll have to learn more of Virginia Dare and her backstory and then we'll come to the culmination of this mess.

Not a fan.
