About this product

Product Information

A feast for the senses, a fantasia of magic, mischief and love, The Night Circus is an extraordinary blend of fantasy and reality that will dazzle readers young and old. The circus arrives without warning. It is simply there, when yesterday it was not. Against the grey sky the towering tents are striped black and white. A sign hanging upon iron gates reads- Opens at Nightfall Closes at Dawn As dusk shifts to twilight, tiny lights begin to flicker all over the tents, as though the whole circus is covered in fireflies. When the tents are aglow, sparkling against the night sky, the sign lights up- Le Cirque des Raves The Circus of Dreams The gates shudder and unlock, seemingly by their own volition. They swing outward, inviting the crowd inside. Now the circus is open. Now you may enter. Discover this amazing fantasy read with a different kind of magic. The Starless Sea, the second novel from the author of the The Night Circus, is out now. 'The only response to this novel is simply- wow. It is a breathtaking feat of imagination, a flight of fancy that pulls you in and wraps you up in its spell' The Times

  • Most critical review

    unconvincing

    A good idea, but the writer wasn't up to the job of making it work. Wooden, lacked vibrancy and sensuousness. Prim, characters 2-dimensional, boy were the protagonists boring! Dialogue clunky. If you are creating an alternative reality, you have to make it real within itself so the reader can trust it and become immersed in it. I lost faith with it round about when the opponents realised who they were, and didn't finish it. And humourless! Why not some humour, dirt, sex, food? - anything to give us links of experience, things we can use to bridge into the imaginary world? Rothfuss, Luis Zafon, Allende, Marlon James - spring to mind as authors who would have made a much better job.

  • A beautiful, fantasy novel

    If you enjoy mystical, fantasy novels then this is a must read. The Night Circus is beautifully written with vivid imagery and a compelling story. The description of the circus is so detailed it transports the reader directly into the scene. My only regret is that the Circus of Dreams isn’t actually real! If ever there was a setting I could experience, the circus of Morgenstern’s would be top of my list.

  • Imaginative mind whirling fantasy. Easy enjoyable reading

    Not quite as good as cracked up to be, light frothy and fun. And of course original. As an adult Harry Potters later books and those of CS Lewis are better. Still a good read
