Lewis conveniently forgets what he learned in the first book, so that he can unleash an evil spirit. This time he has a new friend though, Rose Rita, to save his ass. ( ) I was meant to read this book during October, because I thought that it was going to have the same Halloween vibes as the House with the Clock in its Walls, but I'm really glad that I had to put off reading it because it's got a much more Christmas-y feeling! The cover of the edition that I read is covered in a rich tapestry of red and gold designs, but the major climax of the story happens in a very snowy settings, which serves to heighten the mild thrill for the reader. Will Lewis be able to escape the clutches of the magic amulet that is controlling him? As Lewis makes another foolhardy decision in an effort to gain power and control over the people who are bullying him at school Bellairs uses his gothic premise to explore themes around childhood, jealousy, and friendship, making this book an excellent example of how a fantasy genre can be exploited to be more than just a good adventure. We do get plenty of adventure as well, though, as we hear about the Barnavelt family's contribution (or lack there of) during the American Civil War, and how magic amulets are created and destroyed. Compared to the previous book, the story here is a bit simpler, but it is still strong overall as we see Lewis embark on another learning experience about magic and see his friendship with Rose Rita grow. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
