Lady Friday (The Keys to the Kingdom) |

So, we had the series kicking off to a great start with Mister Monday before confirming its amazingness with the awesome Grim Tuesday (still the best one in my opinion) and adding a new depth and maturity in Drowned Wednesday. But with Lady Friday we have something of an enigma. It is still the same series we know and love, still the same characters and overall feel... but somehow, the energy and pace that made the other books such a joy to read isn't present as much here.
There is still plenty to enjoy here though, by the time you get to the middle of the book where Arthur is well stuck in to the conflict between the various factions and Denizens of the Middle House, things perk up and the 5th part of the Will and the welcome return of the Mariner in particular add a much needed solidity to the events. For that reason, even though it didn't grip me as much as the rest of the series, I'm still going to give this book five stars as taking it more on its own it ... read more.
