The Creature in the Case - Garth Nix
I would like to review this for the older audience. The book is short, and actually starts quite well, but it soon degrades into some giant monster wandering about and eventually being brought to a stop as it tries to enter the old kingdom.
To be honest, the old kindom trilogy ended reasonably well in Abhorson, though the books got worse as he went along, a similar blight which currently afflicts his current series starting with Mr Monday. So I do not see how he can possibly justify this little 'add on' to the series. It adds nothing to it at all, the series should have been left alone and not milked in this manner, but that's up to Nix I guess.
This book is a cash-in basically. I'm sure none of you will find my review 'helpful', but would you rather I overrated it, and you bought a book which was an utter disappointment? I can only review it from my point of view. Maybe this is a good read for kids, but adults avoid.
p.s - The revolution against over generous reviews rolls on.
