![]() Anything is possible in a fantasy book, but a 16-years-old girl that has never seen a sheet music in her life? Come on, the education at public schools in the USA cannot be THAT bad. What really get to me was the sheet music scene in Iron Daughter. ![]() This was obviously illogical and made her look stupid. All she had to do was to ask, there were several hints later. Sometimes it took her so long to get the idea, I got that "like to smack" feeling again :-)įor example: Robbie being in love with her (obvious since beginning), why was her boyfriend giving her a cold shoulder in Iron Daughter, using gremlins, and finding out the identity of the false Iron king. ![]() What was worse, the girl was often dumb as a brick. Especially as the girl leaves home for long time periods and never calls or sends a "I'm alive and O.K." message when she has the opportunity.īut since these books are probably intended for teenage readers, they can probably well identify with the character. At the beginning, she's your typical teenager (means "a whinning brat"), I really wanted to smack her a few times. What I had a problem with was the main character, Meghan Chase. ![]() Of course, there are some typical faults as in many similar books:Īncient beings speaking (contemporaly!) English, heroes surviving dozens of clearly deadly situations despite the odds, teenagers saving the world while the adults are totally innept, etc. Really, these books are anything but boring. ![]()
