Amazing writing!<br />And you've summed it up perfectly in your sentence about how he "wrote of evil and terror in a hopeful, adventure-smitten way"...exactly! Slade walks that fine line of beauty and fear so incredibly skilfully. <br />Unfortunately I'm not the highlighting kind. I read too fast, which I probably should try and rectify, because Chapter 26 left me with such a profound disappointment that there was nothing more to read. Definitely one to read again.Megan Sayerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15410068162701570057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6360410252358941163.post-39231824993565092062012-03-14T11:27:02.409-07:002012-03-14T11:27:02.409-07:00Marian, it doesn't say that to me.
