![]() ![]() This is my first read from Caleb Roehrig, but it has made me an instant fan. There is character development galore here, and character motivations coming to light – it is truly a delicious read – cute boy angst aside. ‘ The Fell of Dark’ is one reveal after another leaving Auggie scrambling to keep his feet on the ground. ![]() Even though the story is only 384 pages long, the font is smaller than your average YA, and I think if the typesetting and formatting matched that of an average YA, the page count would have easily doubled. ![]() But given how long this novel is, maybe it was for the best. ![]() We get bits of info dumping which I can excuse, because we needed context and back story – but maybe a different approach could have been more effective. I really enjoyed this so much, I was kept on my toes the entire novel. And the writing style, combined with the plot reveals lead you in one direction and then flip you upside down. It delivers the same tone as Buffy the Vampire Slayer with sassy characters, twisty plots, scary bad guys: and the only way to get through is for the protagonist to trust their instincts.Īuggie was such an endearing character, I fell in love with the protagonist in the first chapter. And ‘ The Fell of Dark’ definitely surprised me. Another vampire novel… I cringed a bit, but my friends had told me it was good. ![]()
