I am now reading The Turn: The Hollows Begins with Death, the first of three prequels for The Hollows series. I did not realize this was a full-fledged novel at first. I had planned to read all three prequels by this weekend (the other two are graphic novels), but I think it will take me that long to complete this story.
I'm only three chapters (about 45 pages) in and disliking all of the main characters (which is the point for at least one of them). I am curious to see where this all leads.

LOL! No, I don't have that kind of evil streak.
I'm still reading; Twenty Chapters; 263 pages.
1. I'm still not a fan of the main characters of this prequel. There is one, however, that I now dislike more than the others.
2. I was right about one making it into the main series but was wrong about who that would be. The one in the main series is a vital support character.
3. Also, the one I thought was in the main series won't be but IS a relative of one of the main characters.
I hope all of that made sense.
I doubt that I'll be able to finish the book today, but I hope to make a significant dent in it none the less.
