The mystery surrounding the adventure made the story so dark and thrilling to read. When it came to the actual plot of the book I found myself enjoying what I was reading. However, all can’t be lost with this book. I think it was only once it got to the end of the book that I realised there were no feelings towards the characters, when the stakes were really high. There wasn’t really anything about them that made me want to like or care about what happened to them. I think where this book went wrong for me was in the characters that were presented in the book. However, once it got to the third act of the book, when everything is meant to be super intense and coming to a nice end, I found myself really not caring about what was going to happen. It had everything that a book needs to make me like it there was enough magic to feel mystical, and enough darkness to keep me hooked. When it came to the overall reading experience, it was generally quite easy to get though, it didn’ feel long to read or overly complicated to understand. The quick-witted orphan girl, Willow, is with them as they dig in death fields at midnight, and as they are swept into the sprawling blackness of a subterranean city on a journey from which there is no escape. Helping him is his servant, Boy, a child with no name and no past. But alchemy and sorcery are no match against the demonic power pursuing him. A magician called Valerian must save his own life within those few days or pay the price for the pact he made with evil so many years ago. THE DAYS BETWEEN Christmas and New Year’s Eve are dead days, when spirits roam and magic shifts restlessly just beneath the surface of our lives. ![]() Therefore, it felt like it was the perfect time to pick this book up again and see why its lasted in my collection for as long as it had. I have a vague memory of reading this one at the time, but there isn’t really anything that stuck with me enough to know what I’d ben coming into reading it this time around. I’ve had this book for many years, ever since I was in high school. Book Review | Rating – 3/5 | Genre – Fantasy ![]()
