The Toymaker by Jeremy De Quidt
May. 1st, 2010 02:13 pmThe Blurb On The Back:
Some things are best left hidden.
The scrap of paper taken from the dying conjurer’s coat is one of them.
Hold your breath, because the little coachman with the razor sharp knife is coming.
The Toymaker will touch your heart and haunt you forever.
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
This is one of the creepiest YA horrors I’ve read in a while – mostly due to the combination of chilling walking puppets and a psychopathic dwarf with a razor sharp knife. Although it doesn’t glory in violence there is a lot of death and darkness, which more sensitive readers may want to be aware of.
