Aaand Morrison has done it again.
This book probably has the most delightful character development so far in the series. And I love good cahracter arcs.
Syrah starts off as an arrogant... well, jerk. He doesn't want to accept responsibility, neither for work nor for his mistakes.
As he progresses through the story, trying to uncover the mystery behind the plague and poisoning of the Governor, he starts seeing things with a more mature mindset. Frequently, he asks himself, "Why was I like that?" something most young people can probably relate to on some level.
The supporting characters are amazing and loveable. The blossoming of Syrah and Harrow's friendship is truly endearing.
Morrison uses the story of the Frog Prince to address the pertinent issue of the merits of democracy by encouraging the reader to dwell on it's different facets.
I really like how Morrison doesn't write to convince readers of one set opinion, but to encourage them to expand their view. A great message for not only young kids still figuring out the world, but also for adults who sometimes forget to change their perspective.
This book series has quickly climbed my list of favourite book series. Until the next one comes out, I'll be convincing everyone who'll listen to give these a try.
