review 1: Absolutely loved this series! I love to think of a place like Manhattan as being filled with spirits and Gods from the past who built the city and made it what it is today. Without all the people building bridges and creating parks the city would never have taken shape and the idea of remembering all of them makes me so happy! Without the past the present could never exist and Scott Mebus allows us to believe that the past is still present in the present day city. I would definitely recommend this series to anyone who loves fantasy and adventure and to anyone who knows how important it is to never forget to remember.
review 2: This trilogy is a great read and lots of fun. I have never been more curious about the City of New York or its history. In many ways i
... moret is like a "Heroes of Olympus" (name of the Percy Jackson series) for early America. Fascinating. And taken down by the truth! There are so many good things being taught- what is right, being saved by having someone else kill so you didn't have to, those who give back vs those who simply take...it teaches many awesome lessons not the least of which is that Malibu Death Barbie is going to kick your butt if you mess with her family!Really recommend the trilogy. No idea if they will do something else with it, but happy that this is here. It is not the greatest book, it didn't keep me up all night reading, but all the excitment is there and all of the story is together and makes sense (in a fantasy way). Redeption is possible through doing the right thing and you can't just take what you want :) less

This is fun and full of adventure, although starting to get a little formulaic. . .
