A review by bardicbramley
The Imaginary by A.F. Harrold

5.0

I absolutely adored this story.
It was gripping, action-packed, and original.
I'm a big fan on fantasy books anyway, so this was exactly to my taste, but I felt the story touched on perfect amounts of morality, action, mystery and humour.

The characters were well developed, not overly irritating but with realistic flaws and actions. The morals were sweet and true to life, and the plot line felt fulfilling and progressively unfolded at a natural pace.

I would definitely consider this as a great recommendation for primary aged children, although it does have small sections that might cause distress for younger children. I would even recommend this novel as a class focus piece as it would be perfect to work with as a cross curriculum teaching resource!
