![]() ![]() Barker has managed to only improve upon the already wonderfully mysterious world of The Abarat, with new characters introduced and old ones coming back into the fold when you would least expect. To go into too much detail as to the many ups and downs of the second book of the Abarat would be to ruin the adventure for most readers, so I’m remiss to get into the many intricacies of the plot that fills Days of Magic, Nights of War. They’re forced to go their separate ways, but Malingo is soon handed captaining duties on a ship by Diamanda, one of three mysterious women of The 25th Hour, and is charged with finding Candy before Carrion can get his hands on her. After many botched attempts to capture young Candy, her and Malingo are separated on an island that is a virtual non-stop carnival. ![]() They’ve been crossing from island to island with the dreaded Criss-Cross Man, one of the many servants of Christopher Carrion, hot on their heels. ![]() When we catch up with Candy at the beginning, she’s traveling with Malingo, the ex-slave of one Kasper Wolfswinkel, who is now her most trusted ally. ![]()
