There are only two more volumes after this one, so it’s apparently time for Locke & Key to get ready for the endgame. For as fun as the last couple issues have been (and by “fun” I mean horrifying and interesting and really hard to put down), once everything was introduced in Vol. 1, everything was actually pretty status quo, relatively speaking. New keys, Dodge trying to manipulate the Lockes while hiding in plain sight, bad things happening all over the place . . . but in Keys […]
Seriously imaginative fantasy/horror.
This series is so imaginative. And the further in you get, the more stuff it throws at you. I’m actually finding it really difficult to write about it because the more detailed it gets, the weirder it gets, and the more impossible it becomes to talk about. Tyler, Kinsey and Bode have somewhat adjusted to living in Keyhouse, and to using the keys, but their mother is only falling apart harder and faster. The still mysterious Dodge is seeking the Omega Key, the key that will […]
I wonder what the inside of *my* head would look like . . .
I am really digging this series, ya’ll. The artwork is still hit or miss for me when it comes to the characters, but the story more than makes up for it. So in Vol. 1 we were introduced to the Locke family, who have just lost their patriarch due to a violent murder, and have moved to their family home, a house that is so stately it actually has a name: Keyhouse. We were also introduced to the idea that something is off at Keyhouse, […]
A flawed but still wonderful series ender.
So this shit right here is exactly why I read science fiction. It’s got EVERYTHING YOU COULD POSSIBLY WANT. Well, these last two books have been lacking the humor of the first two, mostly because the foul-mouthed poet Martin Silenus was relegated to a background role, but he was there a little bit at the beginning of the last book and the beginning and end of this one, so there was a little bit of humor there. But seriously EVERYTHING ELSE is here. You’ve got […]
I still don’t know what to do with this.
It’s been days since I finished this, and I still don’t know what I think about it. I don’t even know if I liked it or if I hated it or if it was a good ending or a bad ending, or if it was even an ending. Like, yes, OBVIOUSLY it was an ending literally because the series is over, but good endings FEEL like endings, you know? Does that answer my question as to whether this is good or not? I have no […]
Penultimate shenanigans.
The penultimate book in The Unwritten was a bit of a letdown. It felt really unfocused. Granted, the whole thing is about stories coming unraveled, and that might be the point, but either way, it wasn’t a super great reading experience. I feel like there could have been a better way to convey a world that’s lost its purpose without having the story feel a little bit purposeless as well. Tom has finally made it back to the real world after a year of being […]
