Baroman’s attic, or when Rook hears knocking on the other side of the door or when she gets trapped in the giant spider web.
There are some great suspenseful moment like when Rook and Drift hide in Mr. The whole book is action packed and there is never a dull moment in the story. From the get go, we travel with Rook as she tries to survive in the land of Talhaven.
The author has also written Dozana very well and you cannot help despise her for the crooked villain she is. I also loved the other exiles that the team meets in the ship, and wished they also had a backstory. He’s so adorable the moment he bumps into Rook and Drift! Even though he doesn’t have much of a dialogue, his ardent support throughout their journey makes him very memorable. I loved that we directly jump into the adventure and learn about the characters, instead of getting a proper introduction. All the three main characters, Rook, Drift and Fox have endearing qualities that make them naive and charming. For a fantasy adventure, the characters are down to Earth that we can relate to. Having said that, I selected this book in NetGalley because I LOVED the cover design! I am glad I selected it because Wow, this was a roller coaster of a read! I prefer to read realistic fiction for the most part. It’s not that I don’t enjoy it, but it takes quite some time for me to finish a fantasy novel. Before I begin, I would like to say that I’m not a fantasy reader in any way. if that world doesn’t destroy them first.Ī BIG Thank You to NetGalley, Delacorte Books for Young Readers and Random House Children’s for providing me a copy of “The Door to the Lost” by Jaleigh Johnson in exchange for my review. But it’s beginning to look like they’re the only ones who can save their adopted world. Try as they might, Rook and Drift can’t remember anything about their lives before Talhaven. Because magic doesn’t die right away–it decays, twists, and poisons all that it touches. Rook and Drift are two of those children, and ever since that day, they’ve been on the run, magical refugees in a world that doesn’t trust magic. It happened with a giant explosion and the arrival of a skyship full of children, all with magic running through their veins and no memory of home. There was no warning the day magic died in Talhaven. Perfect for fans of Serafina and the Black Cloak and the School for Good and Evil series! From the New York Times bestselling author of The Mark of the Dragonfly comes a thrilling fantasy adventure about two magical friends living as refugees in a world that doesn’t trust magic.
