I just want to say flat out this book is one of the most interesting books of all time. So basically this is a story of a boy that was abandoned by his mother right when he was born. He was abandoned at a theatre called The Scarsenguard. He was found by a laundress (Eugenia Butler)  that worked there at the theatre. He was raised there by the laundress. This is an overall challenging and great book. What I don't really like is that it is so depressing to read. I don't mind the ending I just wish that there was another book.
