I really liked this, you've done a good job writing it and it's an interesting plotline so far.
The only thing I don't like is how you reference old adventures, like in the first chapter when Adie said, "The last time we did something like this, we didn’t even go through with it, got in the biggest heap of trouble, and almost got ourselves killed." I don't know if you did that to make it more mysterious but it just confused me.
Other than that I really liked this, you're description is awesome =]
I think this is really good, esther. Unfortunately, if I subscribe it'll just send the emails to my old adress, so you'll have to tell me when you update or else I won't know. But I would really like to read your updates.
I think it was pretty well written, other than a few times that I found it only slightly repetative near the beginning of the prologue, but I've seen that used in publicized novels as well so it's not really a problem. It kind of reminds me of something that Gary Paulson (I'm not entirely sure if I spelled his last name right) would right. Good job. ^_^
Anyway, that's all I really have to say. Keep at it, because it's really interesting and it grasps peoples' attention (including me). So you better update as often as you can! :D
