I'm going to be honest I was more than a little dissapointed with this book, but mostly I think I was just very confused for most of the time.

The main character is Arthur, a boy who gets dragged into a situation he knows nothing about and has to go on a dangerous mission to find out what's going on. Arthur is a very strange character who gets pulled into something he knows little to nothing about. He is very unsure and stumbles for most of the way.

There are some secondary characters but honestly I was so confused I can't say any of them grabbed me.

The storyline was complex and confusing to me pretty much all of the way through. I might reread this at a later date to see if my mind can tackle the complexity of the story but I can't say for sure right now. The pacing is OK but I didn't really notice it that much because I couldn't tell what was going on in the story.

1.5 stars, not a great read for me
