A review by empettersson
Pathfinder by Angie Sage

3.0

I wanted to love this book so bad, you don't even know. It was awesome to be back in this world and all but I think I had way too high expectations. It was good, don't get me wrong, but I just... I don't care about the new characters. At all. I wanted it to be a lot more about the original cast, and hey, I get that the whole thing about it is that we get to meet new characters but I guess I'm not ready to let the old ones "go". I mean, they're in there, but... Not at all as much as I would have liked.

As I said, don't get me wrong, I liked this book. It was good. But it wasn't as great as I had made my mind up about that it would be. The humor is there and it was great to get to know the whole sep-world a little more but in my opinion it could have been so much more. I mean, why did Marcia decide to let go of her ExtraOrdinary Wizard-title? How have Septimus coped with his new responsibilities? How is Jenna doing as Queen? SO many questions!

That being said, I loved to be back in my favorite world of all time and as much as I hoped for something different out of this book, I could never have NOT liked it. These characters represent my childhood, and I will never stop feel the Magyk within them. Even if they turn out to be something different from what I had imagined.
