For more reviews, check out my blog: Craft-CycleI had no idea what this book was about going into it. I saw it at the library and needed an audiobook that was approximately three hours for my commute. The back cover didn't really give much information, but I was intrigued by the cover art.

Not sure why, however it was not what I thought would be a fitting end to the trilogy. Still liked the first book the most. By Far.

Specifically “This kid’s book is #@$%#$ disturbing!” And when I described the book to them, the reaction was “T...

Some legends call it the Black Beauty, with its bones as black as ebony, but to seventeen-year-old Samuel Bolt, i...

A very uniquely told story. I have never read anything like this. A story about wasps and how a boy deals with his fear of them? It's all very interesting and I don't know what else to say! I will say that Oppel's writing is really good. He has the type of writing style that makes you want to keep w...

A YA prequel to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (which kind of feels weird in itself), This Dark Endeavour imagines a young Victor Frankenstein whose twin, Konrad (not in the original), falls dangerously ill with a mysterious blood disease (leukemia, maybe?). Victor, desperate to save him, embarks on a ...
