Average rating
FEVER CRUMB is a stunning, stand-alone prequel to Philip Reeve’s
brilliant science fantasy quartet. It is set many generations before
the events of Mortal Engines, in whose dazzling world huge, predatory
cities chase and devour each other. Now, London is a riot-torn,
ruinous town, clinging to a devastated landscape and hiding
an explosive secret. Is Fever, adopted daughter of Dr Crumb, the
strange key that will unlock its dangerous mysteries?

Fever Crumb had some interesting twists and some of it was very funny. My favourite parts were the invasion and the chase through London. I liked the names for places in London, eg. Eefrow, Hamsters Heath, Pickled Eel Circus and Stragglemarket. I also liked the puns for the Mott and Hoople pub on Ditch Street and the Orbital Moatway. My favourite character was Land Admiral Nikola Quercus, because he led the Movement well and had an incredible fort. Read the Mortal Engines quartet before you read this.
