I want so much to love this series. I had to re-read book one before I could get into book two because I was totally confused from the start. I have real trouble with the writing style of this author. I feel like a lot of the information has to be inferred because the story, and points of view, keep shifting without "markers" to let me know it has shifted. (If that makes any sense!)

The second book of this trilogy takes the reader deeper into the inspiring and magical world of the authors imagination. As we journey deeper into the world of Caux unexpected twists and turns left me hungry for ever more. Can't wait for the third book!
I could not put this down! The Poisons of Caux is lavish with rich imagination and wit, it saddens me to think there is only one more book to read of this series....I will read these over and over and over!
Another adventure, where Ivy does get into Pimcaux this time, finds out who is her father, and meets the king.
My new favorite author!
Read my review of her first book, The Hollow Bettle.
A fantastic trilogy, perfect if you like Philip Pullman and Lord of the Rings.

Susannah Appelbaum suffered an unsupervised childhood where many of her days she could be found exploring in the forests or nearby riverbanks. Before she was old enough to walk, she ate a particularly enchanting-looking flower from her aunt’s garden, and spent the remainder of the visit in the hospital. But from this early experience–and others more of her own devising (involving flames and goggle...more
