Point of view piece on Darke


Author's note: In this post I am trying to focus on a point of view piece and I will be talking about how the person's point of veiw effects the tone and mood of the story.

In Darke by Angie Sage when the Darke Domain spread out around the castle the mood of the story could have been greatly effected by who's point of view was used.  Like if you used Septimus's point of view it would be a lot different than if you used Marica's point of view or Jenna's.

If Septimus's point of view was used he would see the Darke fog drifting over the cobblestone roads and he would be thinking about how horrible it is and he has to do something about it. Where as Marica would think about who screwed it up, and Jenna would just sit there in shock thinking about how horrible it is and all hope is lost and stuff.

So the author probably had to think about witch persons point of view to use to give the reader that special feeling to make it seem like they where actually in the book at this time, and not just that feeling like "Oh okay so there's a Giant Darke Domain spreading around the castle that could kill everyone, that’s interesting". When people make a book they probably have to think about the person's point of view so that they get the right tone and mood in the story.
