Summary: Something to Look Forward To
Review: Marianne Curley's second book in this Trilogy was something I've been waiting for.
Once recieved, it was something I could not be torn away from. The plot is ominous and foreboding and there are many secrets that you're just dying to find out. BR>Overall, I enjoyed THE DARK and am very glad I bought it.
I suggest reading THE NAMED first otherwise you'll be quite confused. But don't worry, the first is great anyway. Maybe better.

Summary: Wonderful, much better than the first
Review: This book is great! Compared to the first one, I had a lot more fun reading this one. Normally I'm a non-emotional person, but this book made me cry with sadness and joy. The ending may be a little predictable, but I loved it non-the-less. This book is fabulous! No point is giving a bio of it, cause there's one already there. The characters are very well thought, and if you enjoy fantasy involving the past, well then, this is one for you. Make sure you read the other one first though (otherwise you will be totally lost). I highly recommend this book for fatasy addicted teens, along with any other completed or future books done by Marianne Curley. She is an excellent begining author, with a refreshing new look on writing. I cannot wait until she writes the third, final book, although I will be a little sad that the series ended so soon.

Summary: So Good!
Review: This is a CRAZI COOL book! I already read The Named two times and when I saw this book on the shelves my hand shot out and I literally jumped up and down! For a whole week breakfast, homework, TV and everything has been put off constantly to read even just a page of The Dark and now I wish I had savored it better because there are only 30 pages left to read, then its back to boring books. Just like The Named and Old Magic (which I also read two times) there is the PERFECT mix of adventure, suspense, horror(maybey not quite enough, but good for this book) and, of course, romance!! I have recommended Mrs. Curley's books many times and I recommend them to all of you!
