Wundersmith: The Calling of Morrigan Crow by Jessica Townsend


Wunder is gathering in Nevermoor ...


Morrigan Crow may have defeated her deadly curse, passed the dangerous trials and joined the mystical Wundrous Society, but her journey into Nevermoor and all its secrets has only just begun. And she is fast learning that not all magic is used for good.


Morrigan Crow has been invited to join the prestigious Wundrous Society, a place that promised her friendship, protection and belonging for life. She's hoping for an education full of wunder, imagination and discovery - but all the Society want to teach her is how evil Wundersmiths are. And someone is blackmailing Morrigan's unit, turning her last few loyal friends against her. Has Morrigan escaped from being the cursed child of Wintersea only to become the most hated figure in Nevermoor?


Worst of all, people have started to go missing. The fantastical city of Nevermoor, once a place of magic and safety, is now riddled with fear and suspicion...


REVIEW: This was another absolute joy to read from the mind of Jessica Townsend. If you are a fan of Harry Potter and have not read this books you need to. Morrigan has finally opened herself up to her new home, world, and "family." While she is still nervous about what it means to be a Wundersmith and if she will see Ezra Squall again, her life is starting to fall into place. She beings school and we get to meet all the other members of her Unit. Unit 919 is full of an incredible cast of characters who have a long way to go before they thaw to Morrigan and her "big secret." This is an incredible book full of adventure, all different types of magic, some betrayal sprinkled in, and lots of fun at every corner. This is a world I am always looking forward to immersing myself in and I'm really excited to read the third installment, Hollowpox, soon. This was another 5 star read for this series!
