The place felt like glass, both fragile and dangerous, as if something might shatter at any moment.”

Ultimately, however, the characters themselves were a more likeable lot than the morally questionable bunch we met alongside Evelyn Hardcastle 😈 Mario Correa, Matthew Michael Carnahan and Nathaniel Rich Based on the New York Times Magazine article "The Lawyer who Became DuPont's Worst Nightmare by Nathaniel Rich Eating. Everyone and everything is eating. The strong eat the weak. The weak eat the strong and become strong. Humans eat animals. Humans in a business suit eat humans in rags. Humans who refuse to eat are thrown into the "madhouse." Humans who are willing to eat can also be thrown into the madhouse, for they are weak. And the weak become sacrifices whenever sacrifices are demanded by the strong. An important piece of Arent's past, the lore of a demon named Old Tom, plays a large role in this story. Some say Old Tom is aboard the ship; that he's the cause of all the problems.

DarkWater by #ElizabethLowry (published by riverrun, a subsidiary of Quercus Books) is uniquely difficult to explain, and, therefore, review. You almost need to read it for yourself to understand all the connections. The story is good. It is uncommon. It is not what you expect. Stories like this need to be told. It is good to be aware of the dark waters of the mind.There was without doubt some pulse pounding moments and the cold shiver of fear ran down my spine on more than one occasion. “The Devil and the Dark Water” reminded me why I love reading historical fiction and it’s a book I will return to again and again to read, it was that good. A complex plot filled with trepidation, excellently thought out and executed, which was fully explained and recounted towards the end. This enabled any questions you may have had to be completely answered and with an opening for a possible second in the series, I’m hoping there’ll be more from Sammy, Arent and company. so exactly like a house of nightmare: a crooked mausoleum hidden away in a waste land of struggling trees, marooned on scant acres of blasted grass.

The Devil and the Dark Water by Stuart Turton | Goodreads The Devil and the Dark Water by Stuart Turton | Goodreads

A five star read (which I would award more to if I could) that kept me enraptured and entertained from start to finish! Would I recommend? Aye,aye captain I would! The mercenary who saw the spear, then thought about it too long, ended up with half of it buried in his chest. Nowadays, he’d see the spear, wonder who made it, how it had come to be in the soldier’s hands, who the soldier was, why he was there … on and on and on." Regardless, I did have strong emotions whenever I read this book, whether positive or negative. I was never bored, and my mind always found something to analyze - what does this metaphor mean? What is it about the choice of words that makes this sentence seem so stiff? Did Hiram really just ... ? Why are there "hmmm's" and ALL CAPS in the dialogue? Aren't isn't the great detective...but when people are marked for death, he decides that he will have to be. “Questions are swords and answers are shields...”Whew!My favourite word in the story was ‘daemonologica’ ( a taxonomy of devils), a book I’d love to have though I very much doubt one exists!
