Hennepin County Library hardcover, unpaged
What a disappointment! This Wonder Woman sequel was filled with senseless violence, a questionable message about war's futility, and a weird twist at the end to set up the next story in the series. Clearly, the author had a different vision than Piccoult did in the first book. This took me forever to read because I just wasn't enjoying it. So ultimately, was Circe the "bad guy" controlling queen Hippolyta's actions? Or was Granny Goodness at the helm the whole time? The ending tag line, "The war has ended . . . but the apocalypse has just begun." doesn't make me want to continue reading the comic book saga. It tells me I'm done with this.
