All hope abandon, all ye who enter in...
When Pierce Oliviera meets a stranger in a cemetery when she is 7, her life is forever altered. It's probably not a good thing to catch the attention of a keeper of the Underworld. When she dies at 15 and meets him again, she realizes her life will never be the same. He wants her to stay with him in the Underworld, she wants to go. After she escapes and is brought back to life, she is haunted by this man (or actually a handsome "wild thing") She can't decide what to make of him, is she terrified or fascinated- or both? When she moves back to Isla Huesos with her mother, she sees him everywhere and why not, the island is on top of an entrance to the Underworld. Of course, the Furies are also after her. (lots of Greek mythology in this one) What if the only way to stay alive and protect her loved ones, is to go back to the Underworld and stay with John- the mysterious stranger. I LOVED THIS BOOK. Couldn't put it down. Meg Cabot has started a series that will keep the readers guessing and interested. Looking forward to reading more, put John on the list next to Jace, Patch, Daniel, Tobias, Han, Amon, and the list goes on . What is it about a bad boy?
