Here is this week's question:
Fight! Fight!
If you could have two fictional characters fight who would it be and who do you think would win?
*plays theme from Mortal Kombat*
Magic versus Magic:
Chess (Church witch) vs. Arcadia (magician)
I just wrote my review for Summoning the Night, and I just recently read and reviewed Sacrificial Magic, so I've got magic on the brain!
While Chess and Cady have very different personalities they are both damaged heroines with rough pasts. Chess and Cady are fairly evenly matched in the magic department. Chess needs supplies such as graveyard dirt, herbs, and psychopomps while Cady needs a caduceus, saliva or blood, and the markings on her arm. So it might take them both a few seconds to prepare for battle. Chess is not that used to working spells on live humans, she is usually battling ghosts, but I'm not so sure Cady could play as dirty as Chess could.
Hmm, so they are both powerful in using their individual magic abilities, both need items to work their magic, they both have faults........
And the winner is........
Dead Even Tie!
(Duh)
Did you really think I could pick one of these awesome heroines? :)
Happy Friday!
Oooh I haven't read any of those books, but that sounds like an awesome fight! Great picks :)

I haven't read either of these (although I want to), but very thought out answer!! I feel like everybody is putting so much more thought into it than me, haha. Sigh, oh well...
ReplyDeleteMy Friday Hops :)
Chess & Caddy are cute choices!! It's so difficult to chose winners because we all love them so!:)
ReplyDeleteOh, man! I have no idea who I'd pick! I refuse to choose! Besides I just met Cady! I haven't seen all of her awesome magic abilities yet! ;))
ReplyDeleteHave had Kane's book on my to read list for ages! Sounds like it would be an interesting one.

I would go with Chess but that's only because I love the series and I've not read the other yet.

I actually picked Chess, too, in the beginning and then decided against it. I think if she took the right drugs she'd fight like a berserker, but I don't want her to have to live through another ugly moment.
ReplyDeleteJust finished reading Chasing Magic which was superb! :)
