MY REVIEW
Wow ! Midnight Twins is an exciting new fantasy debut novel by Holy Race, that is the first in a trilogy.
Midnight Twins is extremely well written that just grabbed my attention right from the beginning.
I think the reason this story held my full attention is because it is a rare splendid fantasy.
I loved the front cover design by Sophie McDonnell with the two main characters twins Fern and Ollie.
And what’s more this story will take you to a world where dreams and nightmares are born.
Throughout reading Midnight Twins I soon realised that is indeed about an epic world, that’s full of suspense and mystery.
Fifteen year old Fern has a lot to deal with, her twin brother Ollie, hates her and their mother died in her sleep in their fathers arms.
The mysterious part here is Archimago and Fern were knights together in Annwn, but a search on the Internet for Annwn gives a link to The Truth About Your Nightmares. When Fern clicks on it a woman is saying Do you think you’re safe when you are asleep? Well think again. That’s scary as when we dream we hope our dreams will be safe. But phew!! this is without question an excellent unusual fantasy fiction.
The knights aren’t just… Someone appears to be haunting Ferns dreams.
I definitely recommend reading Midnight Twins as the story not just about mystery and suspense, but about friendship betrayal wonder and heartbreak.
So much happens throughout reading this story that I believe if I was to say any more I would spoil the fun for you readers .
I’m so hooked into this first instalment I’m really looking forward to reading the trilogy.
I would like to thank Faye Rogers at @fayerogerspr for helping me secure this wonderful book and for Hot Key Books for sending me Midnight Twins so I could be part of this exciting blog tour.
