Tragedy from the Sea: The Galveston Hurricane of 1900 Book

Like the rest of the Seventh Tower series, this is good, quick-paced fun. It's aimed at a younger reading level than anything else I've read by Garth Nix, so I read the whole book in something like forty minutes, but that's kind of nice, sometimes.

It's a bit of a rushed book, though, I think. Tal and Milla are apart for the whole book, so the fun of their interactions is out, and I felt like it totally sped through some really interesting parts. I'm not entirely pleased with Tal and Milla both becoming such important people, either: they're both muddling through, so at least there's that realism, but it seems like a bit too much of a jump.

At least Milla is still her fierce, awesome self, for the most part.
