Darke
by Angie Sage
“Sometimes talking to a dragon was the only thing that made sense.”
- I was feeling really down last week and didn’t want to read something I need to concentrate on, so I thought I’d read Darke - something that I was familiar with, that would make me smile, that would feel like coming home
- Whilst I wasn’t completely wrong (I know and love these characters and the story continues to be easy to read because I read it in one day), I was not at all familiar with the story - I’ve only read it once before so it was like reading something completely new
- Septimus and Jenna were not my favourite characters in this book, much to my surprise - although they had their reasons, they both acted quite selfishly and a little spoilt, but also kind of teenagery (I forgot they were only 14 in this, they’re still babies)
- This renewed my love for Beetle
- I liked that we had lots of groups of characters interacting in different ways than before
- I was quite tense actually reading this growing imminent disaster
- Once again, we learnt some more about the history of the world and some of the traditions in it it
- I liked that a lot of things from early books started to be tied up in this one, but it also left hints for where the final book will go
