The Library at Mount Char by Scott Hawkins

5.0

I am not typically a sci-fi reader, but I came across this book as a recommendation from a best friend. I am so glad I decided to give this novel a try…talk about wow. A little slow at the beginning in order to set the scene and story, but by chapter 4 things get WILD. Just when I think i know, the author proves that i don’t. I thoroughly enjoyed the descriptive chapter titles that did not spoil the content (my favorite “The luckiest chicken in the world”). The only thing I was able to remotely guess is the reasoning behind the book title….otherwise I had an amazing ride reading a story that kept me on the edge of my seat needing to know what happened next. A refreshing writing style and take on a fantasy with sci-fi flavors. Looking forward to more from Scott Hawkins!
