2 posts | 2 read | 1 reading | 4 to read
As royal assassin for the Faerie Queen, Claire is used to moving between the mortal world and the Winter Kingdom. When the queen commands her to kill, Claire does the job and doesn t ask questions. Her deadly skills and loyalty are soon tested when Claire is sent to the Immortal Circus. It is one of the many places where Dream is harvested from the imaginings of mortals, and someone is causing it to mysteriously disappear. Claire s job is to find the culprit before the Winter Kingdom s supply of Dream is depleted enough to threaten the very survival of the Fey. But when she meets Roxie, a beautiful mortal singer with a strange link to the Dream thieves, Claire quickly recognizes an odd and unexplained connection that may cloud her judgment. As each new clue unveils another secret, Claire finds herself confronting the riddle of her own buried past and a dangerous illusion that, as part of the Immortal Circus, is just another act in the show."

Pickpick

Another read from earlier this year. Creative take on Queen Mab and her involvement in dreams. Takes place in the same world as Immortal Circus. This as one of those books that hovered between so-so and a pick... But in the end, I think the good outweighed the bad, so a pick it is.

"I learned early on that you can go anywhere unobstructed if you act like you're supposed to be there. Never show that you don't belong."

Still not quite connecting with the protagonist, but the narrative is gorgeous. Gonna keep reading, for now.
