A Chapter A Day: Day 16 "Sea of Souls" by Casey Eanes and Seth Ervin

                              A Chapter A Day: Day 16
Reviewing book two in the Keys of Candor series, Sea of Souls, by Seth Ervin and Casey Eanes.

Hey guys, so I just wanted to remind you that the way I write is very personable and how I would speak to my closest friends so if you have seen my at any of the conventions or anywhere else and thought that I was very polite and well spoken I just wanted to apologize because everyone knows by now that I am 15% manners and 85% fangirl noises. 

Now that we have that out of the way lets begin our leisure reading!

The long awaited battle...

                                    Willyn VS Rander

                     Grand prize: Leadership of the Groganlands
                                1 round, winner takes all,
                                                
                                                  Fight
                                                    To
                                                   The
                                                  Death

That was a beautifully written physical altercation.
It contained proper amounts of strength and strategy.
I really liked the way Willyn sized up Rander, she noted his strengths but didn't rule out other possible strengths. Such as his legs, he didn't presumably have any reach with them but she didn't rule it out.
The authors made sure to use more than the usual hit points, such as the knee cap, back of the neck, kidneys and so on. Usually
people just aim for the face so it was very refreshing and inspiring to see them hit elsewhere.

I liked the way that Rander and Willyn made "peace" after the fight. They are both true Grogans to the core and even though they can't trust each other completely, they can understand why and that's a form of trust on its own.

Willyn is known as the Sar and the Groganlands are united again!! That was exciting but I didn't fully appreciate it because I was a little busy laughing at the fact that she had to have her hair dyed before the broadcast. I understand her wanting to be her true self whenever she was acknowledged by her people.
But I think that was the first girly thing that she had done.

Also, I love the description "He was built like an anvil."

That made me picture Rander as this guy with tiny little muscle-y legs and these super broad shoulders and a flat face. I am sure he looks nothing like that but I definitely got a good laugh out of it.


That is all for today, I am going to actually go and post the link on the FB page now. I know I have been doing a terrible job of updating you guys with that :P

See you all on Monday!! Have a safe day tomorrow :)
