![]() Magic Realism (260) Ei tämänhetkisiä Keskustelu-viestiketjuja tästä kirjasta. In Gryphon we move on from Griffin and Sabine to Matthew and Isabella, another pair of star-crossed lovers. Don't worry, G & S are still there, just in a murkier role. Sabine needs help from archaeologist Matthew, but the meaning behind her request is all smoke and mirrors. As with all the other books in the series, the art is amazing, even if the story has gotten a little too cloaked in mystery. ( ![]() Griffin and Sabine have disappeared and suddenly Sabine appears and asks for help from and archeologist in Egypt. This book is filled with danger and strange forces. Matthew and Isabella must unlock the secret world they have become a part of. The continuing story of Sabine & Griffin becomes intertwined with other characters. I lost interest in the series because I could never figure out what was actually going on and quite frankly, I don't trust Bantock to ever enlighten us! Still admiring the art. Somewhat reminds me of Charles Van Sandwyk's illustrations. My blog post about this book is at this link. I think Bantock is taking this too far, and it's much less enjoyable as it goes on. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu
