The Night Circus by Erin MorgensternMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Hooter: The ethereal and mysterious ongoings around the circus that comes and goes without announcement.
If the Illusionist / Prestige was added a few pinches of fantasy and childlike curiosity in an ethereal dream, you'd get the gist of the book. Cloaked in layers of mystery on the origins and the backgrounds, the book is extremely intense especially between the two protagonists who are paired up by factors not in their control. As each understands their challenge better, they also unveal the world of the night circus - a spectacular never seen before show - reminded me of P T Barnum.
The main storyline - the battle between two brilliant magicians was a let down as it paces forward but the world created around it is worth a visit letting your visual imagination wild exploring the world Erin has created through words.
