Book description
First, the chronology of that blurb is off. Josie stumbles upon the statue after a few of those events already occur and she starts dreaming about the goddess. Second, personally, I think that blurb is a little misleading but once you start reading the story, it makes more sense in context. But from just reading the blurb, the storys not exactly how it sounds.My biggest (and pretty much only) issue with this book was the voice. It makes me wonder about the difference in perception of the YA voice from 20 years ago against what it is now. There were just some parts that I felt were so contrived I couldnt help but laugh. Like when Josie was snorkeling and she saw some fish. She then thought to herself that they made her horny. I was so jarred by that I actually laughed out loud. Aside from the complete blindside of that statement, am I missing something? Are swimming fish supposed to be an aphrodisiac? Not to mention Josie isnt a very likeable character. Not that I wanted to stop reading about her, but her actions were on this side of bitchy and uncaring. Shes a very self-centered chick but it all works itself out. Theres a redemption of sorts to her actions.While I feel the plot meandered a little too long at the beginning, fleshing out Josies life up until things start happening, I felt like I was propelled through the story. I felt a little like I was on sea legs reading it. Things were a little choppy, a little discombobulated and some of them didnt make a lot of sense, but once things started to round themselves out, all the little seemingly uneven nuances pulled themselves together in a nice straight path.Im amazed by the ending. Pike has this uncanny ability to weave all of these little bits and bobs together to create a climax thatll blow you away. Im so glad I picked up The Immortal first. It has a great balance of history and present, not eye-rollingly blended at all but convincing enough that maybe, just maybe, if you went to Delos, it might just happen to you. It weaves two seemingly unrelated plotlines together excellently, only coming together completely within the last few pages, leaving you salivating for more because while it ends nice and completely, it doesnt really end. Catch my drift?The best part? Pike isnt afraid to royally screw with his characters. They will be put from one end of the ringer to the other and back again before the book is over and you will love every second of it. Hes fearless and it makes the story all the better. If you have to start somewhere with Pikes work, make it The Immortal. You wont be disappointed. While its not crazy spooky ooky horror, its got a creep factor to it that may just leave you questioning your friends.
