The epic story of the Locke children and the Keyhouse is almost complete. Before the finale there’s Clockworks, in which the Locke’s find a key that can turn back time. In doing so, we learn the origin of the Keyhouse, the keys, and why Dodge hated the kid’s father so much. We also learn why Dodge started out as a girl in volume 1 and why he’s been terrorizing folks ever since.
Joe Hill does a fantastic job with the plotting and helping everything finally start making some sense. The art continues to amaze and no matter how scary things get, the story always captures the human spirit giving the reader both hope and dread for the future of humanity. Papa Stephen King should be proud his genes are continuing to mystify the next generation.
I think once volume 6 comes out, I’m going have to read all the books prior in order to let this sprawling story come together as a beautifully terrifying mosaic.
Worth Consuming.
Rating: 9 out of 10 stars.
