Judge Of Books The Wizard of Dark Street (Oona Crate Mystery #1)

Review of audiobook format.I truly tried to like this tale. I will have to give it a go in actually reading it with my eyes rather than my ears. Shawn Thomas Odyssey sounds well enough as a narrator, but a definite distinction between characters was lacking. I think that was my whole problem getting into the story.

Here's what this book has:--an orphan girl named Oona with an innate talent for magic, a gift that led to a terrible tragedy a few years ago--a fascinating place, Dark Street, poised between a gate leading to our world at one end (which opens for just one minute ever night) and a gate to the fairy realm, locked after a fierce war some years before--a mystery that could threaten the very existence not just of Dark Street, but our world as well, and cast our orphaned heroine out into the streets

cute, appropriate for upper elem.

I read this in draft ages ago, when the author was part of a writing group I was in. I absolutely loved it. I have been saving the book for when I finished a project; that means I get to read it in a week or two.

This steampunk mystery/fantasy was short on imagination and dialogue, with more unanswered questions about this portal world than it had plot. Why do they get their food from New York?

If so, on Dark Street, or in New York? The mystery itself felt a bit obvious. The character Deacon was the best (and he was an encyclopedic

I really have a thing for fantasies set in worlds that lay alongside ours. The blurring of the edges between what we think of as reality and those magical worlds fascinates me, which is probably why I love the Harry Potter series so much (and why Im working on a couple of stories with those kinds of worlds myself). The Wizard of Dark Street takes place on Dark Street (oddly enough), a little neighborhood thats linked to New York City, but is actually a bridge between the normal world and the

I read my fair share of plucky girl detectives. Some of my favorites include a poison-obsessed tween and two fairy-tale sisters. Oona Crate, the protagonist in The Wizard of Dark Street, doesnt measure up to her competition.This book is also a bit like Harry Potter in regards to its setting, a magical world that exists parallel to ours. While Harry Potter never bothered me with all of the world-building details (frankly, JK Rowling could probably write another book in Harrys world, skip the
