hollowspine 's review for:

Lord Sunday by Garth Nix
4.0

I'm a little sad that my adventures with Arthur are now over, but they did end rather spectacularly, so at least that's something. And Arthur gets to have his cake and eat it too, so that was nice.

This is definitely the type of book that would have really appealed to me in middle school, I would have loved to find myself in the House on an adventure of some type.

I really enjoyed the world that Nix created in these books, especially the House, my favorite still being Mr. Monday's lower house.

The obsession with tea and biscuits was also very funny and right up my alley. The characters were all fun and fun to read about and it was good at creating very tense scenes that could have gone either way for poor Arthur, and a couple twists that made it interesting.

Overall, I wasn't really expecting much when I picked up Mr. Monday, but with Alan Corduner's wonderful narration, and the lovely world Nix created, it hooked me instantly and has been a great series.
