A review by ipanzica
Lilith by George MacDonald
4.0
This book reads like it was originally just the author writing down a weird fever dream they had and then during the second draft they started adding some symbolism, meaning, and profound sentences to the book. The beginning of the book is more weird and random, the middle has some horror, and the end is religious. Though what would you expect with a fantasy book named Lilith. My favorite part of the book is when he first meets the sexton/raven/librarian. It was so weird and the tone shift from confusion to terror was beautifully done.
Overall all of the imagery throughout the book was great. Also the book does a great job at keeping you entertained with all the weird and terrifying characters and scenarios. If you ever wanted a darker Alice in wonderland this book is a must read.
