She and Hatcher are travelling through the wilderness, looking for somewhere to call home. Girl in Amber sees Alice take centre stage. But stories don't all end the same way and Elizabeth is determined to shape her own, whatever happens rot her. Yes, there are hints scattered around - like the creepy Mr Dodgson - that we're in the same world. Henry cleverly gives us more insight into Alice's early life while making it clear that Elizabeth is not just a substitute Alice (even if that's how her parents see her). In the first story, Lovely Creature, Elizabeth seems in danger of falling as Alice fell - blundering into the Old Town, being made use of, and then rejected by her parents. I'm grateful to Titan Books for an advance copy of Looking Glass to consider for review.įollowing from Alice and Red Queen, Looking Glass sees Henry return to her Alice-In-Wonderland inspired world, this time with a collection of four novellas featuring Alice and Hatcher - and one focussing on Alice's sister, Elizabeth, living in the New City. Looking Glass (The Chronicles of Alice, 3)
