I love dragons so I found this to read. I did get confused at times and re-read but I still like it. I can't wait for her next book to come out. Although, I was a bit disturbed by the whole... rape part.
I began reading this in the 6th Grade and honestly didn't think much of it. Its exciting moments were less than adequate and its general theme was just plain strange. Honestly, if you're a male like me and are not interested in reading about some "chosen" girl getting naked then don't even bother with this book.
I read this book recently. It has a very good concept, and I like the way they think about things. I noticed that a lot of our concepts are not used in Eon. In the book, the people use the chinese zodiac, and girls are thought very low of. I like this book especially because it shows that the people there think that girls are nothing, have no power, are wrong. However, it takes a while to grasp and is slightly violent and has a few inappropriate things. There is a part when Eona is stuck in a war, and she pulls someone's eye out, and that was rather disturbing. There's another part in the book where she a lost gets raped, but that's also when all the magic happens, so you can't just skip that part. Everything in the book has a purpose, is there for a reason. If you read it carefully or go back when you're done, you'll notice a lot of things that seemed terribly insignificant then, but have a lot of meaning now. I was skimming through the book after reading it, and I came across a part where I had merely looked at it, but had not processed it. Now I know better than to skip parts that don't seem important.
