Enthralling start to the epic (and I mean epic) saga. Somewhat derivative at times (simple rural folks suddenly taken out of their humble lifestyle by a magical stranger and thrust into saving the world - sound familiar?!) but well told and great dialogue and world building throughout.

Loved it!
Stephanie Garber’s writing style is fantastic, it’s so magical and she describes every colour and smell perfectly. It really takes you into the world of Caraval. I absolutely loved this book and it’s by far my favourite read of 2018 so far!

Sensational sequel
Absolutely brilliant film, it will make you laugh, cry and want to sing and dance along with them. Thoroughly enjoyable and just as magical as the first film. My 4 year old loved every minute of it and hasn't stopped dancing since we got home.

"A midget-sized floor in an office building is something that is possible. John Cusack doing puppetry and Cameron Diaz looking frumpy and taking care of monkeys are possible. A portal to a person’s mind is possible. This kind of limitless potential is what makes films magical."

"I saw this film in college, and I’ve never been the same since. It’s a bit slow in parts, but the imagery is so surreal and magical that I copied the look many times in some of my own films. The art direction is a masterpiece."
