De erfenis van Richard Grenville by Natalie Koch

I have to say that especially Crowley’s point of views didn’t feel necessary to me. This to help deepen out some characters like Julia, Crowley and Matthews. There were also a lot more different point of views in this book. The writing style is already quite heavy and I don’t think that helped a lot. I understand what she was trying to do but I think it was becoming a bit too much. In this case we got a lot of philosophy for it. While the pace was slow in the other books we got a lot of character development and world building in return for that. It isn’t so much the ending of this book that left me a bit dissatisfied as it was the pacing and set up at the first half of this book. And it can be hard to satisfy everyone when wrapping up. Hard to write for the author and hard to read for us as readers. While I still love these characters and this world, I can’t help but feel a tad disappointed by this last book in the trilogy. While a homeless man has more to hide than just his identity.

In the mean time Artemus Jones has to appear in court for his part in the events that happened twenty years ago. Strange deaths throughout London creates commotion, and when riots break out it looks like the end of the city. Can music destroy the world or improve it? And can you force magic onto the world if it will make it better? Which game do Jeremy Crowley and Augustus Fenrick play together? Together with her grandfather and friends Alexa dives into the history of the secret societies of London to get an answer to all their questions and to prevent Morgensterns theories to end up in the wrong hands. In this last installment Alexa Westerhof is in search of the writings of the seventeen century mage Morgenstern.

Intussen moet Artemus Jones zich verantwoorden voor zijn betrokkenheid bij de gebeurtenissen van twintig jaar geleden en zwerft er een dakloze rond die meer te verbergen heeft dan zijn identiteit. Raadselachtige sterfgevallen zorgen voor onrust in Londen en als er rellen uitbreken, lijken de dagen van de stad geteld. Kan zijn muziek de wereld vernietigen of juist verbeteren? En mag je magie opdringen aan de wereld als die daar beter van wordt? Welk spel spelen Jeremy Crowley en Augustus Fenrick? Samen met haar grootvader en vrienden duikt Alexa in de geschiedenis van geheime Londense genootschappen om een antwoord te vinden op alle vragen en te voorkomen dat Morgensterns theorieën in verkeerde handen vallen. In De stad van de alchemist gaat Alexa Westerhof op zoek naar de geschriften van de zeventiende-eeuwse magus Morgenstern.
