Changes

Although the actions scenes are very well written and engaging, I did take slight issue with the way in which the twins conveniently escaped any damage other than minor scratches despite multiple conflicts with hordes of surprisingly gruesome rodents, birds and insects. Nevertheless, this was a minor quibble, and one that did not dampen my thorough enjoyment of the novel. This is a series I will definitely be looking out for.

Fans of high octane action and stylishly realised fantasy will love the Charlie Bone series by Jenny Nimmo, the conclusion to which is reviewed [[Charlie Bone and the Red Knight by Jenny Nimmo|here]] at The Bookbag, as well as the hilarious [[Skulduggery Pleasant by Derek Landy]].
