He is finally forced to acknowledge that the licentiousness he had condemned is what he is drawn to and wants to witness.Ĭan Dionysus be called a champion of women? He is driven to question his own beliefs, and loses his willpower, ending up in Dionysus's grasp. He realizes, in the course of their conversations, that Dionysus has the upper hand, that is, that the reasoning of irrationality is stronger than himself. Aside from the threat to the kingdom, Dionysus appears to Pentheus as a threat to him personally. Dionysus is "that which cannot be conquered." His fundamental antipathy towards Dionysus and what he represents leads Pentheus to brand the bacchic revelers as profligate, accusing them of lawlessness. As the chorus sings, Dionysus not only disrupts civic order. Pentheus sees himself as protecting a civilized society and does not want a force in his realm that he cannot imprison, let alone control. In Pentheus's scheme, in a tightly controlled society such as his there can be no room even for Dionysus's less intense powers, for even they involve relaxing restraints and breaking barriers, antithetical to Pentheus's sovereign rigor. To Pentheusmdash the ruler of Thebes and the protector of law and order-the luxurious stranger is Eastern and Barbarian, insidiously beautiful and suspiciously charming. The long-haired, ruddy-cheeked, laughing Dionysus displays no overtly frightening qualities, but Pentheus takes an instant dislike to him.

Which, by the way, the book for sure emphasizes a Fireblood, and how needed she was, so I feel like this book should have been titled Fireblood, and perhaps the next be Frostblood. The magic in this world is separated from people that wield frost, Frostbloods, and people that wield fire, Firebloods. And there isn’t anything wrong with that, either, but it also isn’t going to get five stars or make any best of 2017 lists, for me. This story-line isn’t bad, but it is not anything new or groundbreaking that is going to change YA fantasy as we know it. Strong, young female protagonist, who got dealt a bad hand in their early life, is now fighting for their rightful place on the throne. And you know what star rating I gave all of those books I just listed? Three stars, too. If you enjoyed Throne of Glass, The Queen of the Tearling, and/or Snow Like Ashes then you will probably really enjoy this book. Frostblood was nothing special per se, but that doesn’t make this a bad book. |
