The characters were easily distinguishable I have not read the original The Throne of Fire by Rick Riordan, so I did not have any prior knowledge to base my opinions of this graphic novel on, however, I will say the following positives:

I just like calling authors out on their plotholes.īeing as I am not a graphic novel fan, I wasn't expecting to enjoy THE THRONE OF FIRE, therefore, I wasn't let down, but I also wasn't surprised it wasn't appealing to me.

So either every single one of Walt's ancestors had children at an appallingly young age, or the curse is complete bullshit.ĭespite my ranting I did love the book. His family has been cursed since Tutankhamen to die as teenagers. So again, how did Sadie and Carter convince these parents to give up their kids? If they used some kind of mind-warping magic, I'd have to call them out on their less-than-wonderful moral standards.Īnother thing I didn't understand was Walt's family line. Now get the hell off my property.' Then I would slam my door and promptly look up whether you can get a restraining order against a minor. Where are these kids' parents? If I were a mom and two teenagers showed up at my door, asking to take my kids off to an invisible magic academy in New York without parental supervision, I would say, 'Ha. The initiates Sadie and Carter gather up for magic training in Brooklyn are all very young, 9-15 years old. Here's one thing that really bothered me. Nevertheless I was entertained the whole way through and laughing for most of the chapters. The plot had a very similar structure as the last book, with conflicts arising and being solved rather conveniently. The art in this book was even better than in the Red Pyramid.
