Yeah, but if that's the case, shouldn't she at least have a name that ISN'T a real-life goddess? I mean, I know the whole "mother goddess" aspect reoccurs in many religions, but Nyx is hardly one of them and... gah! *grips head* This makes no sense at all.

Good point. The same is true with Aphrodite. I understand that's not an uncommon name for Greek even today, but Zoey goes on about how it's so pretentious for someone to give themselves that name.

And this is just the first book. They only get worse, and there's about twelve or so. You have been warned!
