Vivi Conway and the Haunted Quest
Lizzie Huxley-Jones
The gang have been hunting for Isabella for weeks, but there’s no sign of her in the Unlands. They can’t even find the portal through to Annwn. And Vivi hasn’t told the rest of the gang about what happened with the villainous Arawn appearing in her dream. She definitely hasn't mentioned how scared she is to fall asleep, in case he reappears. Even Nimue has been quiet. As much as Vivi wants to hope that it’s all over, part of her knows it isn’t... On Dara’s birthday, an invitation comes from their cousin Violet; come stay on Bardsey Island for a week, stay at their cottage, and celebrate Halloween. And bring all your friends! Vivi can’t refuse an opportunity to go back to Wales, and her friends are immediately excited for star-spotting, foraging, hiking, and just general adventuring. Little do they know, they are about to be thrown into a huge high-stakes treasure hunt, with the fate of the world resting on them (again). And Vivi’s feeling that Arawn is just waiting to reappear is only growing stronger...

I JUST SPENT OVER AN HOUR JUST PROCESSING THAT ENDING WHAT DID I JUST READ??? absolutely an 11/10 though, no issues no problems just pure enjoyment and then that insanity at the end was just perfection even if it broke my brain a little thinking of the wait I'll have to endure now until the next book releases.... Characters where top-notch again, and with the addition of Meredith - another Autistic person who is also an ambulatory wheelchair user with EDS! Same with book 1, none of the representation feels forced or out of place at all, it's all so wonderfully written! Gelert I still love, I read his lines in the voice of Drippy from Ni No Kuni in all honesty haha Not much character development in this one, but I don't think that's too needed. There was a lot in book 1, and this book is a lot more focused on evolving the plot and diving deeper into the world building. And it was super cool! A lot more into the mythology, calling out different aspects of it and really just expanding it all out more with a fun little treasure hunt. Honestly, I just love this series so much. The welsh and autistic rep at the same time is beautiful especially with queer rep ontop as well. It's a combination I never thought I'd see, reflecting myself, but I'm just so so glad it's there. There's quite a lot of queer rep, more disabled rep is appearing, but still very little Welsh rep so seeing the wonderful language used so much in this book, I really hope to see more next book!!!
