Review: The Sinister Booksellers of Bath

The Sinister Booksellers of Bath The Sinister Booksellers of Bath by Garth Nix
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Susan is still learning about her magical heritage when a new killer appears.  Merlin gets in over his head and his sister, Vivien, comes to his aide with the help of Susan.  This is a centuries-old battle cycle that must be won, or it will repeat.  They must travel to magical worlds, battle living statues, and discover the secrets of this newest villain.  What will this unlikely trio need to overcome?

The Sinister Booksellers of Bath is the second book in the Left-Handed Booksellers of London series.  Readers’ memories will be nudged throughout the opening chapters and will quickly fall into this new story.  I found the action scenes pulled the storyline along and the book almost read itself.  Nix has taken a few classic characters and has introduced them with some new twists.  A fun read and it will be interesting to see if another will be on its way.
