I've read this book at least ten times - if not more - and it never gets old. It's a great read and I cry every time at the end no matter how hard I try not to. All of the books were amazing but the first two were by far my favorites. How did you come up with the idea for the Pegasus series? (Also, the poem in the last book in the acknowledgements was AMAZING and I definitely didn't hate it, just wanted to throw that in there.) Who inspired your characters? Do you have any writing tips for young and beginning writers?

Rachel, are you new? If so, WELCOME O THE MESSAGE BOARD!!!!!!!!!!! I'M RIVERBREEZE!!!!!!!!!!! But, you can call me River!!! WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME!!!!!

I have read that book before!! It's really, really good!!! I am actually on book 5 in that series and it is awesome!!!! Definatly recommend it!

Yeah, welcome Rachel. I haven't read this book, but I will definitely be trying to this month

Hey guys! I just saw in the newsletter that Kate O'Hearn was doing the interview and wanted to ask her some questions. I LOVE her books so much, and she's one of my favorite authors and one of the reasons I started writing. However, I thought that the last two books were kind of...well, they weren't as good as I thought they could have been. In my opinion, there was too much change but the story itself was good. The first two books were the best, the third was really good, but not as good, and the fourth one was still really good, but after that the books started going downhill in my opinion.

I was very frustrated though because I got RotR #1 right after it came out, and it ended on a cliff hanger and now I HAVE TO WAIT AN ENTIRE YEAR FOR THE NEXT ONE!!!!! ARG!!!

Welcome Rachel!!!! And I LOVE this book Mrs. Alvarez!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh! *SPOILER* Mrs. Alvarez, can you ask Kate O’ Hearn for me if Emily looks like an Xan after she becomes one after the 6th book or if she still looks like Diana? I’ve been wondering that a long time

Cass, I can answer that. She does take on the looks of a Xan in the 6th book. And she can finally (spoiler) hear Pegasus!

At least from what I remember. It's been a while since I read it.

None of that made sense to me, I guess that means I need to read the book

It comes later in the series. The Xan will be introduced in the fourth book. And Emily can't understand Pegasus because she's not an Olympian.

Emily is the main character btw.

I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!! And when Emily becomes Xan he can speak to Pegasus. I love them

HELLO Dancekb13!!!!!!!!! WELCOME TO THE MESSAGE BOARD!!!!!!!!! I'M RIVERBREEZE!!!!!! But, you can call me River :D SO GLAD THAT U ARE HERE!!!!!!! WELCOME WELCOME WELCOME!!!!!!!

Hi Dancekb13. I'm new too. Welcome to the message board.

I know she can hear Pegasus (which is awesome

obviously) but wow. She has had 3 bodies in only.. what? 16-18? years of her life lol

I think she's 13....lol

Yeah, I'm pretty sure she's only 13 years old, but still, it's a LOT. I personally thought all of the changes were just too many. For me it kind of made the last two book a little meh, but they're still good.

Yea. I haven't read them, but I'm aout to.
