I found that the story drew on too many tropes I could recognise from other children's stories - all the same I can see how some would find this book utterly spellbinding

GOD DAMN IT. I didn't realise it was a sequel - 5*
This writing was, honest to God, magical. I was enchanted by Doyle's spellbinding words. I read this on my commute to my course (and it was a traumatic journey) and it didn't feel like I was there. I was on an island close to Ireland.
I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE SECOND BOOK.
I don't have time to write more in the review but omg AWESOME!!!!!!!

Loved how the story kept twisting and not going how I predicted! Love the cross-generations effect!

I absolutely loved this book. It's full of adventure, mystery and magic. A true battle of good and evil. A great start to a new series. I can't wait for the next one.
