Scrivener's Moon | Philip Reeve

I read this book for a library club, reading books that haven‘t been borrowed. Take this with a grain of salt, though; I have little context from the two previous ones. I‘ll say: it isn‘t as bad as I thought it, initially. The character introductions seem forced and I don‘t really care for any of the main characters, though I admit to not hating them. Overall, the book wasn‘t the greatest but it did exceed my (pretty low) expectations.

The future, Quercus would say later, is something that sneaks up on us while we are busy doing other things.

Scrivener's Moon | Philip Reeve

She could sense that there would be paintings made about this night one day, and stories told, and great songs sung, for hundreds of years, long after she was dead. She wished she could be one of them future people listening to the stories, instead of herself, stood helpless and afraid here at the start of things.

“You safe, that would‘ve been first on her list, and don‘t you never doubt it. But second, and in quite large letters, underlined, she‘d have put: Revenge.”

“It is possible we may survive.”
“You‘re such a comfort.”

She suddenly understood why this feeling was called falling in love. It was as dizzying as dropping down a hole.

“But fear is slavery; to be free we must ignore fear.”

This actually is a very good finale. Lots of action, character development, questions are answered and everything is concluded. I loved the last few parts of the book - so beautiful and touching! I added the bonus stories to my TBR, because it can't hurt to revisit this world every now and then.
