I'm so happy I decided to re-read this series. I finished this book in just a few hours. It's such an easy, enjoyable, and exciting read.
In the second installment in the Everworld series, the foursome continue their journey through Everworld, desperate to find a way out. This book starts out where the prior left off. David, Christopher, Jalil, and April are in BIG trouble. They are in the mists of a war between the Vikings and the Aztecs. As if escaping Loki's castle wasn't bad enough, now they have to escape the heart-eating God! We meet some new characters, such as the Coo-Hatch aliens and the famous wizard Merlin.
I liked that this book was in Christopher's perspective. You get to learn more about him, what is thought process is that makes him so snappy. He's the "funny guy" who can sometimes come off as a real jerk. But after reading the story from his view, you understand what he thinks about the others (mainly his distaste for David) and you learn a little bit about his relationship with Senna.
Something I really like about these books is how detailed they are. Most of the first half of the book takes place during and following the Aztec battle. I guess some people wouldn't like that because some scenes really get drug out, but I really like it. I can see this book play in my head like a movie. Action packed, a bit of horror, and a ton of fantasy.
