REVIEW:
The latest outing for Kit and to be honest after the way things had been left from the previous title one that many readers feared could have been the final one. It’s cleverly written, the cast growing physically as well as emotionally throughout the outing and when you add old foes, some clever writerly magic and an overall arc to savour, it more than makes a wonderful read for readers new and old to the series. Finally add to the mix a wonderful sense of prose, some great character interaction which when backed with the twists within makes this a title that the young reader really will clamour for more of. Great stuff.
