This may be the first gothic fantasy book I have read AND finished.

honestly, I don't think this is the kind of book I get engrossed in. I do Love the Gothic Style. my FAV actually. but in books, I find it more boring and not satisfying.

So how this is relevant to this book:

I think the story is really good, the world Above and Under are built and connected in a brilliant way.
I do love the characters and applaud the use of relatively fewer characters that were able to make the whole book.
the characters were, in the beginning, a little undeveloped as they should be. they seemed annoying and boring, but by the half of the book, they are already much more detailed and groomed.

The development of the events is what made me give it Three stars, it is a slow book for me things get over detailed where they could be less described and more action.

but it is a good book - it leaves an impact and memory on the reader.
