There is a particular scene in Wundersmith that shows just how much they care for Morrigan when she is having her lessons in the hotel and they are purposely being a nuisance to get her back into the society halls. The ‘found family’ trope is something I really love in any story and it’s a real theme in this series. The residents of the Deucalion are an interesting lot, I won’t go into each one individually but Fenestra in particular is a wonderful character, again there is so much more than meets the eye and you can tell they love Morrigan and Jupiter. Jupiter North is so mysterious, but it never comes across as him not being developed, he’s vague and is careful not to give too much away. Hawthorn, Morrigan’s best friend, is such a cheeky boy, loves a joke, but genuinely cares about Morrigan, and their friendship is so pure. She just wants a family, to be loved and to be accepted. We understand why she does the things she does, she’s a scared little girl who’s confidence grows, and she never feels older than the age she’s supposed to be like can happen in some younger books. Morrigan is the most developed character I would say but as she is the main character that’s what I would expect. Save up to 80 versus print by going digital with VitalSource.
