I'm not enjoying this as much as I did the first time. I find Atticus much too contemporary for a guy who's supposed to be so incredibly old. Hearne has his target audience dialed in of course, but I feel like there's no surprises to Atticus. The conversations with Oberon are not hitting my funny bone, especially when they're right in the middle of what should be a life-or-death fight. The big battle at the end was impressive, I liked the Time Stream. I'm going to keep reading because I want to find out what happens at the end. I do like many of the characters, I don't hate Atticus, I'm just a little bored with him. And Hearne certainly did a lot of very deep research on mythology, it is kind of fun to look up some of it.
