"My chest burned as emotions swelled again. ![]() This is a two POV book, told by the POV´s of Saint and Ariadne. Here I was, hoping that this book would be better than the first one.Let me tell you, I have some emotions too for this book, and it ain´t good ones. ![]() On one positive note, Ariadne was quite a sweet FMC, she seems like a nice girl, but I have to say also pretty naive. Saint is pretty much an arrogant ass, praising himself over course of the whole book that he would be absolutely amazing and sex with him would be heaven. Of course she is the virgin to his manwhore, because how else would it be. The two have a bit of sexual tension but that was about it for me. In my opinion there was not really any chemistry. The side characters, again, were barely there. ![]() Ariadne has one friend that is in exactly two scenes over the whole span of the book.

They were fiercely loyal, sharp-tongued, and cuttingly humorous in the way that only teenage girls can be.

The lapse of nearly seven hundred years, and the changes which the centuries have worked, alike in language and in thought, would have naturally operated to render any work unfamiliar, still more so when that work was composed in a foreign tongue but, indeed, it is only within the present century that the original text of the Parzival has been collated from the MSS. From the intro: "In presenting, for the first time, to English readers the greatest work of Germany's greatest mediæval poet, a few words of introduction, alike for poem and writer, may not be out of place. Parzival is one of Germany's most famous medieval works, written by the poet Wolfram von Eschenbach. ![]() ![]() ![]() Rhett Santos keeps his gym as a refuge for his former-military brothers and to sweat out his own issues.
