Sapphique Catherine Fisher 9780340893616 Books

I didn't like the lack of description of Incarceron (the first book) and I gave this one 2 stars instead of 1 only because in this book Incarceron - the prison - was fully described which I enjoyed.

But I have to say that the author could have done so much more with this plot. I was very dissapointed by the end, I didn't like the end AT ALL!

First, the author never answered the mysteries of who Sapphique really was and whether Finn is actually Giles. So we've read 2 whole books and have no answers. For me Finn is prince Giles but I didn't appreciate that at the very end the author plant an unnecessary seed of doubt in the readers.

** Spoiler Alert **

Second, poor Finn/Giles after having a tormented life in prison, he only struggled with so much more on the Outside and only to inherit a poor devasted kingdom at the end??! Come on! At least make him have something at the end!!!

And third, during this whole story with so much lies, mean people, negative things, problems and struggles at least I think there should had been a little love to balance all these things. But NO love, Claudia was always cold and distant with Finn and I thought that would change at the end, but nothing! And they are supposed to get married even thought she never truly believed him ... that's very strange to me. Maybe she did love him but how are we suppposed to know if she never thought or say anything to him?
We also didn't get a hug from the Warden to her daughter, not even when they thought they were about to die in Incarceron.
And last but not least, Keiro liked Attia at the end, but also nothing happened there cause obviously Attia fancied Finn. Again, no words, no romance.
I closed the book thinking the author have some issues with expressing feelings and love demonstration. Important things that could had made this book very enjoyable and a great reading.

"Sapphique" is a satisfying sequel. Finn's woes and desires, Claudia's defiance and destiny, Keiro's ambition and strength, Attia's sense of purpose and devotion, are all very pleasing elements in this menagerie for the mind.

"Incarceron" set the stage for the continual rising action of the second and final book of this series. Nothing in this novel disappoints. The twists and turns in the action and alliances provide plenty of mental satisfaction.

Thank you, Catherine Fisher, for two novels of wonderful adventure.
I read this and Incarceron at the behest of my son. I must say I enjoyed it. Attia was my favorite character. The whole idea of a prison being sentient is intriguing to me; it's wants and needs. It has no physical body. It wants to be free of itself. I think young readers would definitely enjoy this.
A brilliant imagination at work in this fantastical tale. All the wonderful elements are woven into a story that kept me turning the pages with a thirst to learn more.
This series is such a fun series to read. It's very adventurous and pretty fast-paced, too. It's one of those stories that keeps you up at night.

Sapphique picks up where Incarceron left off, and alternates perspectives from pretty much every character so we have a great idea of what's going on inside and outside of Incarceron at all times. I think Ms. Fisher did a great job of including all aspects of the story - Claudia and Giles' struggle to claim Giles' title, Keiro and Attia's journey to escape Incarceron, and even Jared's huge part in the end - and pulling them all together in a captivating, fun way to make a really great sequel.

I just hope that the series doesn't end here, as some of Ms. Fisher's websites say. I hope she turns it into a trilogy because the way this book ends suggests that there is more of a story between Giles and Claudia and how they deal with the Realm. I even suspect Keiro and Attia have a little something, something going on. Ha. Anyway, I really do believe there is more to be said.

All in all, a highly recommended continuation of Incarceron.
This book series is imaginative and creative. Since I've been reading them out loud each night to my 13-year-old daughter, I've come to really appreciate the writing style of this author. The words flow and bring to mind exquisite imagery and environments. The book is definitely a page-turner and has kept both my and my daughter's interest. We can't read just one chapter per night - it is that hard to put down. I also appreciate the lack of innuendo and suggestive material. Great for adults and teens.
