Superior Saturday


Being the horrible speller that I am, I finally learned how to spell superior, which is kinda sad since I live by Lake Superior... Anyway, that made me happy because I could spell this title. So, we return once again to the House, after a long wait, I might say. Arthur is determined to take The Will and the key from Lady Saturday, who is equally determined not to give them up. He is also combating the break out of Nothing that is consuming the Lower House. And he's still a little concerned about becoming immortal, a process that is turning him into something he's never wanted.

The bad: Um, this is Arthur Penhaligon, there isn't anything "bad"

The good: Arthur is nobly struggling to keep the remains of his humanity, which for him means compassion and humility.

My view: I had a hard time getting into Lady Friday, as you can see by the lack of review, since Mr. Nix has been slow about getting the books out in a timly manner, which makes it hard to remember the story, and I've been getting older, and Arthur has not (it does all take place in a week...). But I liked this book, it wasn't too hard to remember (I did lose quite a few threads of the story) the basic jist was there, and I was glad to keep reading this fun story.
