| 6. | [no image] | Susannah (Sunfire, No 2) from Scholastic Paperbacks Customer Review: The bond between the hero & heroine was set up on tenuous footing, but the entire jist of the novel was the unpredictable and upending nature of war, where the strangest things are made possible. The character of Susannah is far more like a hybrid of Scarlett O'Hara with an emphasis to the inner... |

| 18. | [no image] | Nicole (Sunfire, No 19) from Scholastic Price: $2.88 Customer Review: This was a surprisingly weak Sunfire, mainly because the romance angle was resolved VERY early on and the only tension was if Nicole's chosen man survived the sinking of the Titanic. The character arc of Nicole's mother was too sudden to be believable, and Nicole's own behavior during the sinking... |
