Passion bp#7

Okay so to continue Luce and Daniel's story, Luce has just gone into an announcer to find out more about her past with Daniel and to find out if its true love that he has for her or if they're just bound together by a curse. When Luce exits the announcer, she is in Moscow during a war where she is confused for her past life girl named Lushka. I'm wondering why Luce is doing this as Daniel is risking life and limb to keep her alive and undo the curse  that binds them. I guess that she makes sense because if the roles between Luce and I were reversed, I would want to be with Daniel to help figure out the curse rather then be locked away in a school where I don't fit in with the nephelim kids. Luce trying to figure out her lives and trying to save herself before anything else bad could happen reminds me of the movie Eragon where the main character is not only on a journey to help rebel against King Galbatorix but trying to find who he is and his inner courage. The journey on finding the true main character is what I like to call an inner quest as he searches for the man he is inside. I am excited to see how this book will unfold and if Luce will have found herself like Eragon and weather her love with Daniel is true or if they both need to escape the curse placed on them for centuries.

Who is the hero? bp#6

I"m still reading The Warlock by Michael Scott. My prediction for the role of hero, I'd say might be Sophie. The very first book has a prophecy saying "One to save the world, and the other to destroy it." page 26 of The Alchemist by Michael Scott. Of the Newman twins, Sophie is my first choice because she is on the side with the Flamels, whereas her brother is with Dr. John Dee, and his temporary accomplice, Virgina Dare. Dee and Dare constantly leave things in a state of shock and destruction, the Flamels do too, but Dee's sole purpose is to return the elders to the earth, especially the evil ones. I don't trust Dee which makes me think that Sophie will end up the reigning hero. Sophie also has traits of the archetypal hero. She suffers through the hardship of being "awakened" and travelling all over the world in like a week, and she suffers seperation from her twin brother Josh. Sophie and Josh are really all that eacht other had growing up because their parents were normally off on an archelogical dig somewhere on the earth. Sophie is also reluctant to believe in magic, and she is innocent, because she was trying only to help her brother and the store he worked in from being hijacked by Dee and his golemns, when she finds herself sucked into a world of mystery. Yet there is always the possibility that the burden of destroying the world could be Sophie, but I highly doubt that as Tsagasal or " The One Who Watches" told Sophie that it very well could be Sophie on Alcatraz with Dee about to let loose all creatures of Nightmare on San Fransisco.

this reminds me of bp # 3

Okay so if you haven't figured it out already, I read pretty quick. So I currently have finished the book called Tigers Curse and loved it. I bring this book up because I wish to connect it to the recent book I'm reading called Wither by Lauren Destefano. In this book there is a virus that kills all women by the age of 20 and men by the age of 24. The main character, Rhine,  is picked up by gatherers to become one of the many brides of Houesmaster  Linden. This connects to my other book because the main character Kelsey is whisked away by night to help save her tiger friend who can really turn into a Indian prince named Deihren and they embark on a dangerous quest through the jungles of Mumbai. They connect because both Kelsey and Rhine are trying to achieve their freedom even though one is from the jungle with a man she doesn't know or trust too well and another from the mansion shes been imprisoned in to become a wife to a guy she doesn't love for the rest of her 4 years.

Character Archetypes!

I am currently reading The Warlock by Micheal Scott. The character I am going to focus on is Josh Newman, one of the twins of legend. He has a golden aura which is supposed to be the most rare and powerful. In the first book The Alchemist, the prophecy written by Abraham the Mage is made as follows; "the two that are one, the one that is all. One to save the world, the other to destroy it." page 26. I think that josh will end up destroying the world. To me, Josh has the archetype of the shape shifter. He is at first with Nicolas Flamel and his twin when he goes with the infamous Dr. John Dee. He says " I believe in a future where everyone is safe, and that will be brought on by the elders Dee is summoning" page 230, The Warlock and in the first book The Alchemist Josh says "I am with you, Flamel." For now I am unsure where Josh's loyalties lay, as he has left Sophie and Flamel to join Dee, but he is very flighty so he very well could return before aiding in the fall of Danu Talis.
