Discussion: Raider's Ransom

Hey all, it's a regular blog post! That hasn't happened in awhile, huh?

Hopefully you've picked up a copy of Raider's Ransom by Emily Diamand. If you haven't, get on it! I'm almost finished with it myself (but don't despair; I'm a fast reader!), and I'm absolutely loving it. I'm glad to hear it's part of a continuing series, but I have no idea how this going to end, but I'm excited to see where it's going.

We're going to start this discussion off with Cats. If you remember, I did a post back over the summer about dogs, so it's only fitting that we start out this discussion immoratlizing Cat, the seatcat.

Unforutately, seacats aren't a real thing. Or, at least not that I can find. Although, Google tells me that there is a band called Seacats (I haven't previewed them yet, so...search at your own risk!), and that the Sea Cat was the name of a British air missile. Totally not what I was looking for.

Cats have been regarded as amazing animals for eons. Most well known was the respect that the Egyptains showed for the furry little critter. If you've ever read the Kane Chronicles by Rick Riordan, you're probably familiar with the god Bast, who is quite amusing.





Do you have a cat? Which do you prefer; cats or dogs? (I'll confess: I'm a dog person).

Share your thoughts so far on Lilly and Cat's adventure, and I'll try to get back next week for another blogpost about "Jewels".

Happy reading,
Samma
