A review by meganac
Midwinterblood by Marcus Sedgwick

4.0

He wonders about them all, all the many lives that have been, and that will be, and wonders why they are not all the same, why they are what they are. It cannot be, he thinks, that when our life is run, we are done. There must be more to man than that, surely?

This is just as weird as Sedgwick's other books, thankfully. I was disappointed by She is Not Invisible but I loved The Ghosts of Heaven, and this was more like the latter. I went into it pretty much blind. It tells seven stories in reverse chronological order, each connected. I loved the bit of history. If you love weird books that make you think, this might be just the book for you. Be warned though, it is a bit macabre at parts.
