I am now eagerly awaiting the last installment because I am hooked. There is a lot of emotional complexity to his characters and their relationships which I also appreciated. The plot was engaging, fast-paced and action packed from the get go which made this a very quick and enjoyable read. I loved the eeriness and horror aspects of this book and have read this is akin to a lot of his other work too. 'ĭespite only realising this book was part of a trilogy 91% of the way through, I really enjoyed it and will definitely be picking up the others.Īfter reading this, I am now a huge fan of Jarvis' writing style.

But it is while they are distracted an old enemy finds a path to their door. When Lil finds an antique box of watercolour paints she welcomes the diversion, little realising that every time she uses it something nasty escapes. More than ever she needs the support of best friend Verne and the witch Cherry Cerise, but they are preoccupied by their attempts to uncover more secrets of the golden Nimius.

Despite Lil’s crucial role in saving her home from destruction, she notices that the townsfolk have become wary of her – even fear her. Lil and Verne may think they have quelled the Dark forces that tried to destroy Whitby, but they have no idea that the powers they’ve been meddling with are about to turn on them. 'Legend of supernatural fantasy Robin Jarvis is back with his spellbinding sequel to The Power of Dark.
