Weird: A Henry Ian Darling Oddity: Missive Two by Julie Elizabeth Powell

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I'm a big fan of Julie Elizabeth Powell's books and having read the first book in this series I was looking forward to Missive Two. This is a wonderfully engrossing story. It's told in the first person by the character Henry Ian Darling. His story is indeed a 'weird' one but it kept me interested throughout!

In the first book we found out that Henry had died and then come back to life and had been slightly 'changed' because of the experience. In this story we find out more about how he's changed.

After the discovery of something in the boot of a car we are taken on an adventure as Henry and his wife Clara, try to put a stop to a powerful and evil witch's plans.

I don't think it's essential to have read the first story to enjoy this one because the author has explained a lot of the background in this book, but I would definitely recommend Missive One as well as this Missive.

This fantasy series is turning out to be a lot of fun to read and the characters are fascinating. I'm now looking forward to Missive Three!
