Starless Sea
By Erin Morgenstern
The main character is Zachary Ezra
Rawlins along with several other characters and puzzle pieces. Zachary, is a
young gay man of color and is the son of a fortune-teller. He finds a
mysterious book and when he reads through the pages, he reads a story of his
own childhood.
eager
to make sense of how his own life came to be recorded, Zachary discovers a
series of clues--a bee, a key, and a sword--that lead him to a masquerade party
in New York, to a secret club, and through a doorway to an ancient library,
hidden far below the surface of the earth.
If you like a story for the sake of
the story, then I recommend reading it.
I think Erin Morgenstern writing is
like a painting. You can visually follow her story, Her imagery fascinated me.
The starless sea is not a normal book it is a complex read and hard to follow.
If you enjoy complex fantasy, then you are going to love this. I found no other
stories comparable to this book/ Erin Morgenstern has a unique and different
way of telling tales. I really liked the love letter to interactive
storytelling in video game form.
“Strange, isn’t it? To love a book.
When the words on the pages become so precious that they feel like part of your
own history because they are. It’s nice to finally have someone read stories I
know so intimately.”
