Short
Summary of the book:
This is the 4th book in the
series, and just as good as the others. Jack’s dad is still stuck in the Mirror
Realm when Chronos’ Sickle causes a rift. The Dire escapes and enslaves people,
Fae, and animals alike. Will Jack escape its influence and find help?
What
I liked about the book:
The book is well-written and action-filled.
What
I didn’t like about the book:
Like the first three in the series, it was
difficult to put the book down, and I was at risk of not getting enough sleep
(just kidding, the book was just that good).
My
favourite bits in the book:
The entire book.
My
least favourite bits in the book:
I enjoyed the entire book.
Any
further books in the series? Any more planned by this author?
This is the fourth book in the series, and fits
well after the stand-alone, The Tale of Nathaniel.
What
books could this be compared to and why?
Like stories about faeries and goblins? This
is a story like no other.
Recommendation:
In
summary, I would recommend this book to the following readers:
Children |
No |
Young
Adult |
Yes |
Adult |

If
you like fiction with a bit of fairy dust, but
lots of action and evil goblins, too, this book may be the book for you.
I
look forward to reading more books by this author.

Description by Author:
When
darkness falls, who carries the light?
An
ancient peril will consume the world. Seemingly unstoppable, nothing can resist
its sweet invitation to oblivion. Locked away for millennia, the Dire has only
two things it wants. To become one, and to conquer all.
Unaware
of the dangers, Jack and his friends have other problems to solve. And
Anastasia is running scared. So, when everything goes spectacularly wrong, to
whom can a boy turn? His father, of course.
The
sorrow is coming. And unlikely allies are all that will stand against it....
