Talk:Book 7: Flashback/@comment-37589255-20181201182443

Warning: CONTAINS SPOILERS

I don't know if it's just me, but did anyone else feel like lots more could have, and should have, been included in Flachback? This book was over 700 pages, and the only major things that happened were finding out the caches were fake, Tam getting captured by the Neverseen, Sophie and Fitz being attcked by the Neverseen, and Sophie being unmatchable (the last line of the book)...did they even figure anything out? To me the whole book was just unproductive. It started off great, with Alvar's trial and all, and the battle at the end was good too, but the majority was spent on Sophie and Fitz recovering. Also, the thing about the caches, I feel like it's a little late to throw that humongous bombshell into the books. I mean, the characters have spent so much of the books trying to unlock those things...and now suddenly their fake? The Black Swan already seems quite behind in solving the Neverseen's plans. Maybe they'll get really ahead in the next book, but for now, they're really behind, and this is a big throwback. Plus, the whole idea of them being a team was left out. The characters were barely all together, and some characters, like Marella, Dex, and Linh didn't play much of a part. I mean, we just figured out that Marella is a pyrokinetic, I really would've liked to see more build up on that. I feel like Shannon Messenger should start giving us more answers and less questions. I don't know, just my opinion. Anyone else agree?

Ps. I didn't mean to offend anyone and I don't mean any hate towards this book.
