I enjoy Jonathan Stroud books for the most part but this one was very disappointing. Losing a friend is very hard but the way this one was written didn't do anything except confuse the reader.It was like he couldn't decide which way to go with this one. It just ended without any real explanation of what really happened to Charlie.It had some strange characters in it and nothing was ever explained to the reader. A child would have a difficult time following the storyline and it is a young adult novel.I will continue to read Jonathan stroud's novels but this one really wasn't that good.
