Darkwhispers: A Brightstorm Adventure by Vashti Hardy
5.0
Vashti, when you wrote Brightstorm I didn’t think you could surpass that but then along came Darkwhispers. This is written absolutely beautifully and the new worlds you created are just stunning.
In this book we follow Arthur and Maudie on a whole new adventure.
They are back on the Aurora and assisting Eudora Vane who in this book shows herself to be on the high end of female villains in middle grade fiction. She certainly shows her true colours even more in this.
I adored the descriptions of some of the new worlds and the things in them. Vashti’s writing was so good you could shut your eyes and you’d almost expect to see to what she has described on opening them.
The adventures this time round whilst looking for the lost explorer were amazing and I actually loved this book more. The whole book just read much much better and i got totally absorbed into this more than i did with Brightstorm. This was brilliant and i highly highly recommend picking up this series. We now just need another book in this series and a possible final adventure for Arthur and Maudie to go on. Loved it
