A review by againanew
Abarat by Clive Barker

1.0

I am thoroughly confused by the good ratings of this book. Granted I am reading it on my Kindle and so I cannot see the artwork, but for something that is rated above 4 stars I would expect at least a fairly decent and original plot. Absolutely nothing about this book is original, except some of the physical characteristics of the characters I suppose. The plot line is flat and anything that happens has happened in a million other fantasy books. I can't even finish this.
