I have finished it. This was a re-read for me. It was even better the 2nd time through!

[Deanna]

Finished today!

Stephen - (view spoiler)[I'm so glad the Diana and her father had one more chance to spend time together. His frank words seemed to be exactly what she needed to accept her magic. (hide spoiler)]

Diana and Matthew - (view spoiler)[I'm glad they finally settled in and learned to talk openly together. There really were way to many secrets going on. Twins sound like a lot of fun. (hide spoiler)]

Gallowglass - (view spoiler)[He is definitely my favorite new character from this book. He has clearly done an amazing job of keeping the secrets of the 16th century visit from the Matthew of that time. I'm glad that he will be around in the next book. (hide spoiler)]

I agree on all these points. I was so happy to see Stephen! :)

I finally sat to read. It has been a really long time since Ive read the first book but so far so good.

[kat (wanderfulbooks)]

Just finished.

And yes, I loved that short yet meaningful interlude with Stephen. And danng, timewalking as past time?!

Cant we have a complete set of parents in present time? The thought of everybody together sounds boisterous and heaps of fun.

With the mention of twins, and even though I haven't read tje third book yet, first thing that came into mind was... "I wonder what their abilities would be like" And so I want a book with them as MCs. I bet theyd kick ass in the modern world.

As much as I enjoyed spending time with great men of history, I'm so glad to be back in present times.

*off to book 3*

[Laura]

She’s writing a new book about Marcus and Phoebe.

I'm not sure how I feel about it, yup I liked Marcus but for a series with him as MC... Who knows, the author would spin a fantastic tale. Or maybe we'll get a glimpse of the twins?

[Laura]

The twins are born during the 3rd book, so we do see them a bit. But I would like more of them.

They are?! First half or towards the end?

[Laura]

About the middle? I’m not sure.

[kat (wanderfulbooks)]

I'm tempted to ask if they manifested but I am going to restrain myself ;)
