The first part of the story deals with the Rise and the Fade (Fin is a Fade); we learn a lot of interesting stuff about them. Marrill and crew are also trying to prevent Serth from awakening a creature that will destroy the Pirate Stream.
This book is a bit darker than previous books. You see a lot of Ardent’s obsession with Annabelle come to the surface. Ardent makes many decisions that put everyone at risk in pursuit of his own obsession. At times his character is almost bipolar, alternating between jovial old wizard and cold, calculating villain.
Although I did enjoy the adventure and some of the creative places our team ventures to….I did find my attention lagging at a number of points. There is just something about the writing style throughout this book that makes it hard for me to read. It’s like the writing is a bit awkward and doesn’t flow that well. I end up really having to actively focus on each word to read it. This was one of those books where I would sit down to read it and immediately think of something else I would rather be doing. Not because it was an awful book, just because the writing didn’t flow well and the story wasn’t engaging me. I had this problem with the first two books in the series too.
Overall this was a good continuation of this series. There is a lot of creative world-building in here and some excellent adventure. I have some trouble engaging with the characters and staying engaged in the story. For me the writing doesn’t flow very well (I’ve had this issue with the whole series) so I have trouble staying focused. Because of this issue I won’t be continuing the series; I just get frustrated which how tough these books are for me to read. However, I think many middle grade readers will probably enjoy the story.
