Title: The Curse of the King
Series: Seven Wonders - 4th book
Author: Peter Lerangis
Read Before: no
Comments: The Curse of the King’s plot is more cohesive and interesting than the previous book. In it, the search of the fourth loculus continues but the stakes are higher and the revelations are bigger. It starts off being the same old same old that we have been reading but by the time the halfway point passes and the party encounters the Massa does it start to suck you in. We finally learn which organization between the Karai Institute and the Massa are evil ones. Marco also plays a bigger role after regulated to a supporting character. The fourth guardian of the fourth loculus, and how it was obtained was a bit disappointing overall, since it wasn’t dwelt on too much. The “backwardish” of Cass (speaking words spelt backwards) is starting to become very annoying with the author attempting humor but failing miserably. The climax is a bit melodramatic; however, the plot and writing has improved.
Rating: 6.5/10
