Ash Mistry And The World Of Darkness by Sarwat Chadda

The Blurb On The Back:

Ash Mistry:
A slightly geeky boy who has grown into a mythical hero. And the problem with mythical heroes? They have to go up against mythical beasts …


An even bigger problem: Ash’s superpowers – invested in him by the Death Goddess, Kali – seem no longer to be working.

Without Kali, can Ash defeat the evil Lord Savage and save the world?


The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )

The Verdict:

The conclusion to Sarwat Chadda’s MG dark fantasy trilogy is another fast-paced, action filled affair with a lot of violence but also more of a sense of the consequences of that comes from that violence. The dual time lines are well handled and I enjoyed the fact that we again get to see characters from the previous books. Chadda also does a good job at showing Ash’s character journey over the three books by showing him in contrast with Ashoka. As a result, this is a fitting end to an entertaining trilogy.
