Christopher is narrator of this novel in the EverWorld series. He puts on a comedy face - joking and wisecracking without thought about what is happening to the group. His comments come out any old way often insulting group members.
Encountering Aztec mythology and human sacrifice, the four must survive to find their way back home for good. Involved in a battle between the Vikings and the Aztecs they view firsthand how the Aztecs treat their prisoners. As they wait in line they see those before them have their hearts ripped out and devoured. Will this be their fate?
All the group wants is just to go home and stay there. However, that seems not to be as the group falls asleep, one by one, and return to their normal lives. When they get involved in that life they are suddenly zipped back into EverWorld to encounter more trouble laced with danger.
Enter book 2 of the Everworld series. From the first book we see the point of view from David (one of the four friends "sucked" into Everworld). In this book we see it from Christopher. It takes up right where the first book left off... the Vikings are at war with the Aztecs. Will they win or will their hearts end up on Huitzilopoctli's platter? This book is a page turner. The four friends are always ending up somewhere not expected. They learn how much they need each other and how they need to work like a team in order to survive.
Very good book, I was up past midnight reading it. This one gives a different point of view, which I liked just as much as the original. Fast paced and I couldn't put it down!
