• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes

5.0

It felt like this book has two main characters Allan Quatermain and Mameena, Mameena being the Child of Storm. We follow Allan hunting, visiting witch doctors, getting stuck in conflicts. But Mameena is the source of all events in this story and mind you the events are mostly horrifying. 
Mameena made think of a character from Three Musketeers, I do not remember her, but she too was a source of all different events.
