The Companions Quartet: Mines of the Minotaur by Julia Golding – review

BookWorm: 'This book is funny, exciting and original'
  
  


WARNING – SPOILER ALERT FOR BOOKS 1 AND 2

As I write more and more reviews, it becomes increasingly difficult to think of
more good things to say about a book. This, however, is not the case with this
series, as words simply come flooding out of my fingers. This book is funny, exciting and original and it is the closest I have ever come to finding the perfect story.

The Universal has a new power that can make or break the Society: storm-raising. Connie is potentially a weapon that can undo all of the work they have been doing for years, a weapon that can be the pathway for Kullervo.

When Doctor Brock hears about it, Connie thinks it is the end of her as a Society member. But he at least understands, he knows she is not fully aware of what is doing when she does it. But Mr Carrington, the new Trustee, is determined to throw her out of the Society once and for all.

Abandoned by the Society, she is forbidden to make any contact with any fellow member, a rule which is immediately broken. Trying to hide from them all, she is taken into a place full of unwanted and unwholesome mythical creatures, lead by a Minotaur who has lost his duty of life.

He teaches Connie a new skill which could bring her back to her usual life. It is time to take a journey through Connie's mind...

This is unlike any other series because it has got all the ingredients to make the perfect story. Annoyingly, not a lot of people seem to have read them and I don't know why. Do read them! Unlike most fantasy stories, it makes you wonder if it could actually be true, you just don't know about it... I'll leave that thought with you...
