I tend to want them action-focused, but I'm keeping this one in mind for when I want to take my time with a story.

So it was interesting reading your thoughts and explanation. It's also interested to see how the author chose to interpret it.Ayleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07639250102446794830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11403564.post-40986274982848100422011-10-30T16:54:50.929-04:002011-10-30T16:54:50.929-04:00Sadly, I didn't know about this book, or the m...Sadly, I didn't know about this book, or the mythology behind it. This is one of the reasons I love having you around!<br /><br />Thanks for the detailed explanation. Mythology has always been a bit jarring for me because of the how many names and relations you have to keep up with, but I think I've got the gist of it from what you've described.Missie, The Unread Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10548256640926555361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11403564.post-26589098830708779242011-10-30T14:22:57.660-04:002011-10-30T14:22:57.660-04:00Thanks for the review, Zahida!

It's been awhile since I touched up on Theseus' adventures so I can't really recall exactly what he did, but it's interesting to see what kind of direction the author went with. I like how it seems Dark of the Moon goes deeper into Greek mythology than other YA novels have been lately...Midnight Bloomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13066607315430568010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11403564.post-51556636427677866512011-10-30T09:42:41.180-04:002011-10-30T09:42:41.180-04:00I'm such a huge fan of Greek mythology, this i...I'm such a huge fan of Greek mythology, this is going to be a must read for me! I really like the sound of her interpretation of Ariadne and even though Theseus's POV wasn't quite as well done, it still seems like a fantastic read for mythology lovers.
