Mago Re is terribly mesmerizing and well crafted, and I won’t spoil the story by telling you the main point of his story. Aloysius, Nico, and Mago Re were my favorites-for different reasons. It’s been a long time since I was so inspired to walk in the footsteps of characters in a book. And because it is about love, it is also about loyalty, sacrifice, long-suffering, hope, mercy, forgiveness, courage, honesty, and repentance. But it really a story about true love: love between man and woman, friend and foe, high and lowly, noble and despicable, humble and arrogant, wise and foolish, kind and cruel. I can only be glad that those wonderful people, for a short sweet time, existed.īased on the cover and cryptic marketing, I had thought Sinking City was about magic and monsters and masquerades. Christine kills off some of my favorite characters, but she doesn't do anything I wouldn't do, so I can't blame her.
Christine’s beautifully vivid, easy prose will suck you into this story that starts with an intense hook, settles into a comfortable middle of mystery and mistaken identities, and ends with 100 pages of breathless action. I didn't think any new novel by Christine Cohen could win me over like The Winter King with its snowy donegality, but truly, The Sinking City is even better.
