5/10, this seemed like an interesting and original yet obscure novel about some creature arising from his sleep and a bowl but it ultimately very much underwhelmed me and I found a lot of problems with this which I'll get to later on. Crog by Amanda Mitchison begins with a rather flat character Wilf making a questionable decision of stealing a bowl from a museum and he escapes, that doesn't seem that important at first but it'll play a major role in the plot soon enough. He meets back with his sister Ishbel when they meet some random creature from 3000 years ago called Crog, he's apparently the protector of the bowl for whatever reason and it has been stolen before so he plans for that to not happen again and so Wilf and Ishbel run away from their home and from the police to try and keep the bowl for themselves and I didn't like these characters because they didn't develop at all and they were quite irritating to read at times when they argued over each other. In the end, Crog comes back for the bowl and they give it back to him but he wants the last piece of the bowl and they find that and give that to him as well, afterwards, he dies for whatever reason but it's mostly likely due to old age, he's 3000 years old after all but anyways that ends in the story in a fizzling-out manner, it's such a shame that it had to end this way. If you like fantasy books try the Shadow and Bone series by Leigh Bardugo.… (altro)
