Marvelous Adventures of Gwendolyn Gray
Marvelous Adventures of Gwendolyn Gray | B A Williamson
4 posts | 4 read | 15 to read
Gwendolyn Gray faces an overwhelming battle every day: keeping her imagination under control. It's a struggle for a dreamer like Gwendolyn, in a city of identical gray skyscrapers, clouds that never clear, and grown-ups who never understand. But when her daydreams come alive and run amok in The City, the struggle to control them becomes as real as the furry creatures infesting her bedroom. Worse yet, she's drawn the attention of the Faceless Gentlemen, who want to preserve order in The City by erasing Gwendolyn and her troublesome creations. With the help of two explorers from another world, Gwendolyn escapes and finds herself in a land of clockwork inventions and colorful creations. Now Gwendolyn must harness her powers and, with a gang of airship pirates, stop the Faceless Gentlemen from destroying the new world she loves and the home that never wanted her--before every world becomes gray and dull.

"Then her tiny umbrella burst open wider and expanded into a six-foot canopy of pink ruffles.".

What a wonderful mode of escape - jumping from a building and floating with an umbrella/parachute.?

Finally getting a chance to read some of this ARC. So far I am loving it - a great tale so far.

Gwendolyn is an incredibly likable, enjoyable and intelligent character that I couldn't help but root for and want to protect. My only two complaints were that the villain dystopian guys were fleshed out enough and the pacing (it wasnt wasnt bad) I just found that parts where there were supposed to be climaxes, I found myself inhaling and waiting and then realized that was it

The cover is STUNNING & a fantastic representation of the book.
