Now I understand why Iron Crowned wasn't as good as it could've been. Richelle Mead was obviously saving all her creative energy for what I think will be a very good series :D Okay, so Jill, Lissa's half-sister, is attacked by certain Moroi who are displeased with having a teen queen, and they believe that murdering Jill will dethrone Lissa. Thus, it is decided that Jill should stay under the radar for a while. This is where the Alchemists come in, because they feel that it is their job to watch the Moroi, keep humanity ignorant of their existance, and essentially keep the peace. But they aren't doing it out of the goodness of their hearts; no, these Alchemists are very religious and believe they're protecting humanity from these 'unnatural monsters', using the power of God. They look down on the Moroi, while simultaneously fearing them. Sydney, who's still under suspicion after helping Rose break out of prison, is elected to help/babysit Jill, in place of Sydney's sister, Zoe. Once she finds out exactly which Alchemist she'll be working with - Keith Darnell, the Alchemists' Golden Boy - she's even more determined that it be her and not her sister. However, Sydney's good intentions are misinterpreted by Zoe, who is less than happy to be humiliated and seen as incompetent, and she and Sydney leave on bad terms. Jill is accompanied by Eddie, Adrian, Rose and Abe (but the last two aren't important to the plot line) to Palm Springs, CA. Sydney is blatantly uncomfortable around the Moroi, especially Abe, and we do eventually find out what he's got on her. We also find out about the obvious animosity between Keith and Sydney, and what exactly happened to Keith's eye (And let me tell you, Keith totally deserved it >:D). Jill, Sydney, and Eddie join Amberwood Prep, and pose as siblings (which Sydney is initially uncomfortable about). Sydney caught the attention of her classmates, both because of her brains and her gold lily tattoo, which her classmates thought were interrelated. Their suspicions make sense, especially when Sydney finds out that half of Amberwood have tattoos of Alchemist roots, which either increases a person's stamina, or gives off a really good high. Sydney then discovers that someone is also using vampire blood for these tattoos. Sydney and Eddie eventually fit in, but Jill becomes a victim of Laurel's teasing. Laurel is jealous of the attention Micah, a Mason Ashford look-a-like, gives Jill, and basically makes her life hell. It doesn't help that Jill sucks at sports, mainly because they play it outside, in the sun. Jill also catches the attention of Lee, Clarence's son. Clarence is a renegade Moroi who agreed to help Jill. He hates the Moroi government, and is still grieving for his niece's death, whom he claims was killed by vampire hunters. It turns out that Tamara's actual killer was closer to home. Lee is so sweet to Jill, a ray of sunshine in her otherwise miserable life. I thought they had the makings of a great couple, even though he was slightly creepy. Adrian's presence is a bit of a non sequitur, until you find out just how close he and Jill are. I loved the banter between Adrian and Sydney; I'd forgotten just how funny he could be. He's still hurting over Rose, but you can tell that he's going to heal, especially with Sydney in the picture. But I think it'll take a long time (say, 2 or 3 books...) before anything happens between Sydney and him, especially with the way Sydney freaked out over Jill's water magic (I felt bad about laughing at her, but it was damn funny). But that last scene...damn, Mead. What a cliffhanger. This was a really good start to the series, and I'm glad to see the return of one my favourite characters (yes, I'm talking about Adrian). I'm glad Mead chose to stick with 1st person dialogue, as I think it allowed us to understand Sydney better, understand why she did the things she did and give us more insight into the Alchemists' black and white belief system. It certainly explained Sydney's uptightness. Also, Keith Darnell is a douchebag. I hope I haven't revealed too much :D P.S Did anyone else think that there's something more to Juarez's sunshine tattoo? o_O
