The Boy Who Drew the Future by Rhian Ivory

5.0

Such a haunting story! Noah and Blaze were both such compelling characters, you can't help but be sucked into their narratives as they weave together so beautifully.

3.5 stars.
Overall, I found this intriguing and quite haunting.
Noah's story is told well, especially his backstory, quite skilful in first person narrative, it being gradually revealed through conversations etc. I preferred Noah's story to Blaze's, but I don't think Noah was proactive enough in a way.

This book was very eerie and slightly different to what I normally read. It tells the tale of two boys, Noah and Blaze who both have the same gift: they see and draw the future. The story tells of their troubles and attempts to control their powers in two completely different times in history. They are linked in unexplainable ways centred on the little village where they live. It was a haunting story told by two vastly different yet remarkably similar characters. Noah seems, from the start to by hiding something which adds tension. What has happened to him in the past which forced his family to move and caused their fearful attitude towards him ? Read on to find the answer. You won't expect it.
