Another installment in Mr. Delaney's Wardstone Chronicles, bit by bit we are introduced to his wonderful/dark universe(for me it is a bit teen-ish????), first two books introduced to us the particular creepy crawlies that inhabit his particular world, boggarts, witches, ghasts, ghosts and a the Bane(again I prefer to ask the people who read my rant/rave section to discover by their own, rather than give spoilers)!!
For Book Three, the story of Thomas Ward continues, here we are introduced to some more of the mythos that makes this a good read, pacing is as always slow then builds up to the climax whether you have predicted the ending or not, add to this, we finally read the humane side of The Spook!!
Not much else here, so until the next Chronicles..............
