author: marianne curley
character: arkarian, for his compassion, cool collectedness and his truth-seeing.
what i like about it: the headquarters at ancient athens, the citadel, the poignant prologue and storyline
what i'm not too sure about: the concept of guardians of time is a bit overused, and the writing style is simple, but that's because this book is aimed at readers around age 12
other notes: when i picked it up at the local library, it was because of the font and the smoky dark blue spine: modern typeface against an eerie forest; the effect is too haunting to resist

author: marianne curley
character: arkarian
what i like about it: arkarian gets in a lot of deep guano in this book, isabel gets a fantastic gift, and evil gets thwarted
what i'm not too sure about: the POVs are from isabel or arkarian, and i get confused between the two sometimes
other notes: i was so happy to pick this up at the library, not to mention the library near my place is poorly-stocked, but once in a while, a real treasure like this pops up.
