Drowned Wednesday (Garth Nix)

Garth Nix is a very cool Australian fantasy author, who mainly writes for young adults. Drowned Wednesday is the third book in his Keys to the Kingdom series, which is written for younger children, I think, which explains why I wasn't so thrilled by it. It's very inventive, but too simplistic in its characterisation, too rushed. I imagine I would have loved it if I was 10. Reluctantly, 3 out of 5.
