So much filler, ugh! However, I really liked Heir of Fire and felt like it did offer a lot of character growth and development. (I also really loved the introduction of Rowan.) But I totally agree with HP! Order of the Phoenix is my favourite of the series and they ruined the film for it by not including some very important scenes. >:(Charlottehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02068135640413650969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3286833942649943693.post-77151211948083139132015-12-11T15:50:40.002+00:002015-12-11T15:50:40.002+00:00I really agree!

I could not get through City of Fallen Angels for the life of me, and House of Hades, I thought, had a lot of pointless fillers. It's kind of like Heir of Fire in the Throne of Glass series. Ugh, that book annoyed me so much. All this being said, however, there are some books that I thought didn't follow this pattern. Books like HP and The Order of the Phoenix, I thought, added great advancements to the story. paperbackprincesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07446601964387517150noreply@blogger.com
