Book 42 of the 50 Book Challenge

The City of Gold and Lead by John Christopher, 151 pages



Started June 16th, finished June 17th.

This is the second in The Tripods Trilogy.  I love it as much as I do the first book.  It manages to continue the voyage of discovery started in the first book.

This book is almost all about Will.  Henry and Beanpole are lost from the narrative early on.  Will has the weight of the Free Men's hopes on his shoulders.  His character is very well written.  He is doing a brave and wonderful thing but still has his sulky, impetuous side that he's struggling to keep in check.

I'm enjoying these book as much as I have done before :-)
