Is there any evidence that she is working against her former allies? No. are working with a previous villain because…why? Did she do anything to earn their trust? No. However, I think the real reason I could not understand the plot is that it is not really understandable. Altogether, this is a disappointing installment that feels very much like the stereotypical “middle book”: it is doing nothing but taking up space.įor a long time, I could not get my bearing in the story and I feared that it had been too long since I had read Book Five. Many of the characters we have come to know and love fall by the wayside, as Shannon Messenger struggles to handle her large cast. There is no clear point to the story or to any of the characters’ actions. In Nightfall, the series has finally lost its way. Still, I have loved every ridiculous minute of the series until now. I recognize that the Keeper of the Lost Cities series is not well written and that it often borders on farce, especially with its love square (pentagon? hexagon?) and the fact that the characters give themselves ship names. And Sophie isn’t sure she should trust one of the villains. But only one person knows how to get there. The Neverseen have taken them to Nightfall. Sophie is looking for her parents–the human parents she’d forgotten she’d had, until it was too late.
