This review is from: Into the Cold Fire (Daughters of the Moon #2) (Hardcover)

As a goddess with supernatural powers, Serena is unable to have a normal teenage life. But at least she has the comfort of her three best friends - Catty, Vanessa, and Jimena - who, like her, have powers. And there's a cute new guy at school that has his eye on her. But everything is about to change. Jimena, who has premontions, gets a vision of Serena betraying her friends and turning to the dark side. Serena knows that she would never, ever do that, but every vision Jimena has had before has come true. And not only that, but Serena is missing memories, particuarly of a terrifying night on the beach - she knows she was almost killed, but has no memory of her escape. Serena fights against her destiny as time is running out - but is it too late for her to save herself? Read to find out! I reccomend this series to teens who like supernatural oriented shows such as Charmed and Buffy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Serena Faces A Cold Fire...We Face It With Her!, December 18, 2001

By

This review is from: Into the Cold Fire (Daughters of the Moon #2) (Hardcover)

This is the second installment of The Daughters Of The Moon series. This series is about four girls (primeraly) who are goddesses, daughters of the moon. There is Vanessa, whose power was to become invisible, Catty, who can travel through time, Serena, who can read minds, and last but not least Jimena who can see the future through preminititions.
This book is about Serena, who witnesses an ancient cermony performed by the Atrox, the evil thing sent to devour hope and to destroy the Daughters. There is a fire burning, a cold fire, in which a girl is standing, surrounded by followers of the Atrox. But she doesn't burn. Maggie, the Daughters "trainer" reveals that this ancient ritual is to make whichever of the Atrox's Followers will become immortal. But only few are chosen to become immortal...and it looks like Serena is one of them!
Then her best friend Jimena has a preminition of Serena standing in the cold fire, and gaining immortality and becoming a witch goddess, an evil Daughter-turned-evil. Will this happen? Will Serena become evil? Find out to read.
This book, with pleasing dialouge and an entertaining plot, will best be understood if read after the first one. Read this book to discover the beginning of Lynne's fantastic stories of a few very special girls.

5.0 out of 5 stars Serena has always been different...., November 24, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Into the Cold Fire (Daughters of the Moon #2) (Hardcover)

This series is about four teenage godesses. I recomend that youread the first book in the series "godess of the night"before you read this one or it can be confusing. This story is aboutSerena, one of the four godesses, the others are Vanessa, Jimena andCatty. They all have powers - Vanessa can become invisable, Jimena haspremonitions, Serena reads minds and Catty can "tweak time."The godesses have to protect the earth and its beings from the darkpower of the Attrox the greatest evil. They all have the ability tospeak latin and ancient greek and they all wear moon amulets that weregiven to them on the days that they were born. In this story, theyare trying to defeat the followers, who have given themselves to theAttrox. Serena always has problems with boyfriends because she canread they're thoughts, but she meets Zahi, who's thoughts are all inother languages. Things seem to be going great until Jimena has apremonition that Serena is going to surrender herself to the attrox,making all the others much weaker. Serena is sure that she will neverjoin the Attrox, but then again, Jimena's premontions have never beenwrong before, and they've never been able to stop them from comingtrue....
