“He believed in magic, like a child, and in ghosts, like a peasant. His nose was broken by a falling volume of fairy tales his first day on the job, and that, they said, told you everything you needed to know about strange Lazlo Strange: head in the clouds, world of his own, fairy tales and fancy.”
Even though this one took me a bit longer to fully get invested, I thoroughly enjoyed this story. The writing was just as lyrical as people have said and I have come to really appreciate the beauty. Laini Taylor’s brilliant storytelling shines through and always contains more layers than meets the eye.
Truthfully, I adored the feelings & similarities I saw between Strange the Dreamer and Disney’s Atlantis. The grand adventure plus a deep seated appreciation of stories & knowledge made this such an enjoyable reading experience. I look forward to seeing how the story continues and concludes in the next book!
