Liked It “I didn't like Covenant of the Flame as well, because inexplicably, it features characters from the other three books (though I think Covenant is between Fraternity and League) but doesn't name them.

Didn’t Like It “I didn't even finish this. Not even sure if I made it through the first 100 pages. I can't stand when characters actions in a novel don't mesh well with the situation.

“I didn't even finish this. Not even sure if I made it through the first 100 pages. I can't stand when characters actions in a novel don't mesh well with the situation.

“This book was way slow to start, with the beginning being particularly confusing, but it eventually got smoother and made more sense...at least to me. There was a LOT of environmental jargon that I suspect would have lost a few people. Luckily, I spent 8 years as an Environmental Educator AFTER 4 years in an Environmental Studies kind of college. I didn't care for the Environmental vs. Religion slant but I did appreciate that they pointed out the good AND negative sides of both groups. It does leave you routing for the "bad guys", though. There were,also, more than a few "duh" moments where a character would state the obvious just to fill in the "audience". Give us some credit, huh!”
