Currently 6 in the series. More planned.
This is one of my favourite series simply because of the irrepressible nature of its heroine. If you are into spunky heroines who get into a load of trouble, then this is for you. Cat Royal, named by the proprietor of the theater she grew up in, is brave, talented and has a propensity for trouble. The series gives you a first class view into her journey as traverses countries, risks everything for people she loves and lets go of the one she perhaps loves the most. Insouciant and bold, Cat’s narrative voice is a pleasure to read. While it is true that her troubles have a way of working out, the conclusions are not neatly reached. There is suffering but that side of reality is distanced just a smidgen. The characters and their dynamic is a pleasure to read and each new book brings with it new developments in the hurricane that is Cat Royal. I recommend this if you like good books and fun reads.
Hey – just hoppin’ by! I started the hop on Friday, but had to leave, just now getting back to it. Hope you had a great weekend! Stop by The Wormhole and say hi!
…And so here I arrive at your blog, yet again with more books to be added to my Must Check Out list. I see this as a definite recurring theme.
Hehe. Until school starts in three weeks and kills all my fun reading. My professors are already sending reading lists.
As are mine; I’ve already received a few lists. But, I plan to read as much of my fun reads as possible up until school starts.
I remember reading the first of this series and it was amazing. Golding really took me into the backstreets of London. I haven’t read anymore of the Cat Royal books, and I’m surprised to learn there are so many. She makes a great heroine.
I must pick the story back up again.
