From the very begining.<br />I so disliked him.<br />And in Veiled Rose... learning about the boy, the jester he truely was...<br />kinda a little more empathy. But my dislike returned full force while he was in Parumvir.<br />Why didn't you just go with Aethelbald?!?!?!?<br />Anyway, no; I didn't want to 'throttle' him in MoonBlood.<br />I almost freaked out when I thought he was going to die.<br />You kind grow attatched to him somewhere between Veiled Rose and Moonblood.<br />You understand him.<br />Please, write more about him and the new queen of Arpiar.

It's GREAT! You were very wise not to read the A-Zs. They have a lot of spoilers.<br /><br />Barka: Exactly, Barka. One has to remember that God made you who you are. As I heard someone say, "Your DNA was divinely planned." <br />It's interesting that you brought up the Stone. I was just reading <br />1 Peter 2:4-10, and the comparison to stones really caught my attention. There has to be a good allegorical fantasy plot in there! :)Hannahnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102067376746188002.post-13965292192184706922012-09-25T12:29:45.750-04:002012-09-25T12:29:45.750-04:00How do you stay true to yourself amid cultural pre...How do you stay true to yourself amid cultural pressure?

I wanted to believe his prince and dragon story right along with Una. When we discover who is in charge of Lionheart I felt pity for him. That pity intensified after I read "Veiled Rose." So I was all ready to see him redeem himself in "Moonblood."<br /><br />Anyone will be able to relate to Lionheart at least sometime in their life. He went under a lot of stress, most likely more then we'll ever understand. Pressure from cultural expectations, and the desperation to please, changed him from his real lovable self into an uncertain, insecure, brokan young man--something that happens all too often in real life.<br />Readers can learn a lot from Lionheart.<br />I know some people can't seem to stand him.<br />But Lionheart is human.<br />He's like me.<br />He's like you.<br />So don't be too hasty to judge him.<br />Now I can't say if Lionheart ever gets redeemed or not. To find out, read Moonblood!Hannahnoreply@blogger.com
