Mysteries of Thorn Manor by Margaret Rogerson
2.0
A novella from the Sorcery of Thorns series, takes us back to the Thorn Manor with a new mystery. The story takes place some time after the events of the main story, with Elisabeth living with Nathaniel and Silas. However, now, the Manor is attacking them, locking them all inside.
As an idea, it was nice to be back in the Sorcery of Thorns world and wrap up all those lose ends that were left almost unanswered in the main book.
However, the novella isn't at the same level as the novel. The gothic atmosphere and the almost like a dark fairy tale mood that the main book had and was what I enjoyed the most about it, is gone and here were have a few scenes of an enchanted mansion and more talk about the future and what is to happen to the main couple.
I do have to add though that there were a few dialogues that made me laugh. And the writing was enjoyable, especially when it came to the characters.
