Kerlois: A good day, everyone, and welcome to Mister Monday, for the very last time! Last time, Arthur got home, finally cured the Sleepy Plague and the book ended with a sequel hook. Now it is time for the final thoughts.
Overall
Corneille Blanche: All in all… it is not a bad book, but not a great one, either. It reads smoothly enough and it certainly is compelling, but the plot problems keep it from being what it could be. Sure, they are not so conspicuous on a casual read, but if I am to like a book, it should stand up to deeper examination. So I would say this book passes, though it does not rank very highly.
And that is that! Off we go. (picks up Kerlois and leaves along with Vermaanti)
Scales: Well, that was Mister Monday, then! I’ve finally managed to finish a review! I hope whoever read this had fun reading along with me, and maybe you’ll go on to the book that takes its place: Lord Foul’s Bane. See you there!
