Discussion chapter 1-5

Discussion chapter 6-10

In Chapter 6, Atticus goes hunting with Oberon and Flidais. What was supposed to be a fun hunting trip turned rather disastrous. Were you expecting something like this to happen or did it catch you by surprise? Have you ever had something that should have been fun turn disastrous or nearly disastrous?

I didn't like Flidais from the beginning, so it wasn't a surprise when everything went haywire.

Too many things went disastrous. Every time there is a family outing the car will ALWAYS break down in the middle of the road. At least now we can get the car fixed, hubs has some car knowledge after all ;)

We are only briefly introduced to the witches (or, a witch) in chapter 7. What are your first impressions? How much would you trust the witches? Why?

The witch sounds okay, with a college student appearance. But as Atticus suspects you can never tell from the appearance how old or evil or good she might be, I am not ready to trust her just yet.

There only few witches I will trust. One, Minerva McGonagall and second Hermione Granger. Yeah I am sort of a Harry Potter geek :D

Oberon says, “With dogs you just go up and smell their asses and you know where you stand. It’s so much easier. Why can’t humans do that?” Do you ever wish there was an easier way to find out where you stand with someone (besides Oberon’s suggestion, of course)? In what cases would it be easier or better to hide your true feelings?

I think we all face theses sort of situation in our life, there is always someone that makes things difficult. But I wish there was some way to find out where you stand with the person without being too obvious about it. I am pretty shy person, so I just pretty much avoid 0~0

Chapter 9 makes Atticus’ life much more difficult: the witches are in some way working with Aeghus Og, Bres comes after Atticus, and more trouble appears at the end of the chapter. Have you made sense of what has happened thus far? Any predictions for what might happen?

Everyone seem to be after Atticus, so at this point it's better not to trust anyone, that's the only thing I am getting out of this.

My prediction? *scratches head* I am BAD at predicting stuff. When I do sometimes they fit but most of the time just blah. I say Atticus ends up battling with Aeghus with the sword. I'm just sayin. 

Atticus has had plenty of time to cultivate attitudes and ethics that would allow him to live a very long time. What do you think it is about Atticus that has allowed him to live for as long as he has?

With all these binding he has around him, it's pretty hard to get to him. He moves around allot, not spending too much time in one place. Have Oberon, also I want to add Morrigan but I am not sure yet where she stands with Atticus. But at the end, Atticus is pretty smart he has been avoiding Aeghus for centuries, thinks with his head when faced with a Goddess. But dude if you keep that up Aeghus will have your head, so sometimes it's better to think with the actual head... why does it still sound wrong in my head?    

End of discussion 6-10 

Can someone please tell me if there is real romantic interest for Atticus with anyone?
