The Conquering Dark: Crown & Key by Susan Griffith, Clay Griffith
3.0
I received this book courtesy of Random House Publishing Group-Del Rey via Netgalley in exchange for my honest review of this book.
What is it about: Fans of the Crown and Key Society are once again eager to dive into this third installment of the series and hoping to gain some closure! Simon Archer, the last magician-scribe, has lost his powers and evil forces are still at work against them. Simon struggles with his newfound version of humanity and reinvent his arsenal against the supernatural. The group must channel all efforts to find a way to restore Simon's powers quickly as a powerful demigod, Gaios is set on a course that could mean utter destruction for Britain and ultimately the world. Through determination, ingenuity, team work, ultimate sacrifice, love, and mad fighting skills the Crown and Key Society set forth on a course to save each other and the world.
What did I think: This was my first exposure to the series. I found it to be a fun summer read that will take the reader on a short break from the mundane into the fantasy. The storyline was original and kept an incredibly fast pace for the reader. This isn't really a book you can put down and pick back up again. It will be easier to sit awhile and read the story through!
