6/24/2023 0 Comments Nevermoor by jessica townsendMorrigan Crow is a cursed child, doomed to die on the last night of the age, Eventide. I was captured by the very first chapter, enchanted by the mysterious and colourful Jupiter North, and intrigued by the magic of Nevermoor, but it was the brave heroine of this story, Morrigan Crow, who truly won my heart. Nevermoor is reminiscent of Harry Potter, The Chronicles of Narnia and The Unwanteds, and yet has a quality that is unique to this charming story. My thoughtsĪ delightful, whimsical and purely imaginative fantasy, Nevermore is sure to capture the attention of readers of all ages. The young girl must compete in four difficult and dangerous trials against hundreds of other children, each boasting an extraordinary talent. Morrigan’s rescuer, Jupiter, owns the eccentric Hotel Deucalion and has chosen Morrigan to contend for a place in the city’s most prestigious society. She is spared when rescued by a mysterious stranger ,and after they are chased by black-smoke hounds and shadowy hunters on horseback, they escape to a secret city called Nevermoor. The book tells the story of Morrigan Crow, a girl born on Eventide, who’s fated to die at midnight on her ninth birthday.
