This was a highly anticipated book after the cliff-hanger from the first book - and it lived up to my expectations. It's just as dark and twisted as before. Monsters, magic and dangerous situation, this book has it all! I would recommend to read it together with your child if she/he gets easily scared, because it could give them some nightmares.
Kara and Taf are a great duo. I always love to read about brother/sister relationships and their voice sounded genuine with their age. I never felt I was reading a book written by an adult; Kara and Taf acted like their age.
Kara is a strong, intelligent girl and a good role model. She takes care of her brother and she knows how to make the best out of every situation. Things get pretty messy when they are captured by Sorin, who wants Kara to release him from his connection to The Thickety - so he can roam the earth and spread more chaos.
Taf is exactly how I imagine every little boy; a bit naughty and he looks up to his sister. His quick mind comes in handy in many situation and I love his nativity. It gave his character a lot of charm.
Sorin was an interesting villain and I love the unexpected twist. It doesn't happen often that MG surprise me with their endings, but I never expected this conclusion about Sorin.
I look forward to more books from this author.
