Despite the fact I still haven't
finished reading "Facing Up" I have begun to read Fever Crumb, a book
written by author Phillip Reeve and is the prequel to the successful
"Mortal Engines series".
To start with, I have only read
the first few chapters of the book, although it has impressed so far. Set in a post
apocalyptic and steampunk world. London and other cities seem to be moving, how
this is I have yet to comprehend. These cities are lorded over by a group of warlords
known as the Scriven.
The book follows the story of Fever Crumb, an engineering
apprentice, with a name that sounds like they should be from Jamaica and have a
haircut like Skrillex.
There are multiple books in the
series, as well as there being another series set in the same world. There are
two reasons for this, either the series have become extremely successful and
people refuse to get bored. Or, the most likely option, Phillip Reeve is REALLY
unoriginal.
But anyway, the book is good so
far and I shall blog again once I have read more.
