Equinox by David Towsey (Head of Zeus)

World of duality, where people have day and night brother/sister. When the time comes, they chew the right amount of dried ettiene leaves to ease their transition and fell asleep. Different minds and behaviour but the same body.

A heinous crime has been committed in the city of Esteburg and the police suspect supernatural causes. Christophor Morden, one of the king's special inspectorate starts to investigate and in a village far from home, he discover the signs of ritual performed by a witch. Christophor's day brother musician Alexander obviously doesn't know anything about the investigation, yet is deeply connected into the village life and intrigues. Can they work together or against each other?

Everyone is not as they seem in this fantasy novel, replete with war, witchcraft and secrets.

The book is fascinating, but lacks some explanation and depth. It is also pretty predictable. A little too around and about in the narrative.

All in all good fantasy novel and the cover is gorgeous.

3/5
