Twilight Robbery by Frances Hardinge
Jan. 21st, 2011 11:36 pmThe Blurb On The Back:
As dusk approaches the good people of Toll-by-day slam shut their doors and tremble ... It’s time to discover deadly Toll-by-night – a very different place! And orphan Mosca Mye is trapped there, with only a murderous goose and a war-crazed dandy to help her.
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
This is a richly written, vivid and imaginative sequel to the award winning middle grade book FLY BY NIGHT. You don’t need to have read FLY BY NIGHT to follow this although it may help explain the relationship between some of the characters. However it is a long book and the pace drags at time while at times it feels a little over-written. However I remain a big fan of Hardinge’s work and for its faults the sheer creativity here makes it worth the time.
TWILIGHT ROBBERY will be released in the UK on 4 March 2011. Thanks to the Amazon Vine Programme for the ARC of this book.
