Love a narrative being told within a narrative. Vampires at their best, ruling the world 27 years after ‘daysdeath’. Gripping for the most as the holy Silver Order battle to defeat them. A Sunday Times bestseller and a good YA read.
Maori mythology, and cosmology combine to create a gripping fantasy. Add in the myths of Maui whilst a group of teenagers are practicing for their performance of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream and you have a resulting literary feast!
If Jojo Moyes, John Green, and Celeste Ng loved it, then it’s a worthy read. And the references to Shakespeare are great even if you don’t love Shakespeare. One of my best reads this year.
Kingsolver at her best. An epic tale! Loved it.
