I spent much of my reading waiting for Rossamund to meet some important monsters. Ever since Lamplighter hinted at the existence of The Sparrow King I've been waiting impatiently for the moment when Rossamund meets him face to face. I won't give away whether or not that happens in this book, but I will say that Cornish does a fairly good job at showing us some impressive magisterial monsters while also allowing us a glimpse (just a glimpse, mind) into their culture. There are some questions that remain unanswered at the end. These include (avert thine eyes if you do not wish to know) how monsters are born, how Rossamund specifically was born (there's an allusion to the process, but I wanted details), what monster culture is like, etc. etc. Basically, I wanted more monsters. But Cornish is young and healthy. He has a number of good years ahead of him. Perhaps more monsters are in the offering. We'll simply have to wait patiently and see.
So now it's done. It's done and it's gone and I'll never have the experience of discovering the books for the first time again. This makes me inordinately sad. So sad, in fact, that I think I'll try to force the next child I run across to read Foundling ... even if they're five years old. I'm patient. I can wait until they're old enough to read it ... then read Lamplighter ... then finally read Factotum. Oh, it may take years but eventually I'd get to see them experience the joy of the series for themselves. And then maybe by that point D.M. Cornish will have other books out as well. A gal can dream, after all.
