I was a little bummed to find out that "What Feasts at Night" wouldn't be another retelling of a gothic classic like "What Moves the Dead." However, that feeling of disappointment was quickly dashed. Romanian folklore, anybody? 
Once again T Kingfisher delivered a healthy dose of eerie wonder, spooky delight, and just plain gave me the creeps, lol.
She is very quickly becoming one of my favorite authors.

Short read. Writing was able to portray the feeling of short breaths.

slow-paced

Ein Horrorroman mit starker Grundidee – aber leider ausbaufähiger Umsetzung.

Die mystische Atmosphäre und das Konzept haben mir gefallen, aber die eigentliche Spannung kam für meinen Geschmack viel zu spät – erst auf den letzten 40 Seiten zog das Tempo richtig an. Davor plätscherte die Geschichte eher dahin, ohne die düstere Stimmung zu erzeugen, die ich mir von einem Horrorbuch erhofft hatte.


Das Potenzial war definitiv da, und mit einer intensiveren, früher einsetzenden Spannung hätte das Buch richtig packend werden können. So blieb es für mich ein solides, aber nicht herausragendes Leseerlebnis.



Not as spooky as the first book but still enjoyable!
