I'd honestly never looked at it that way before Chad, LOL. Good point.
Then again, that was always something else I liked seeing tackled in these books though, were that kids could understand and handle more than adults give them credit for.
Back on topic, if pressed to where I did have to pick a favorite book/moment for Cassie, to counter-point some of the bad I've pointed out, I guess I'd have to say...#34 The Prophecy, though that's partly cheating since my favorite bits of that are the parts more with Aldrea.
