Pearson makes the leap to writing fantasy for adults (she‘s an established author who typically writes YA fantasy) with this book about a mortal woman & a Fae kingdom on the brink of disaster. Much of the story, many of the characters, are familiar—you‘ve read this sort of story before—but it‘s well executed. Good writing makes up for occasionally clunky world building—maybe more fully realized in future books—& I found this to be a fun escape.

Happy Halloween! Excited for my #botm picks for November, esp the tagged book.

At one time, you could read any work which was a part of a series and still come away with an ending. The next book would pick up with a different quest or mystery. That time is no more. Now you read 500 pages and still don‘t get an ending. It dragged a bit in the middle but the opening and last pages were intense The characters were plentiful & interesting& the atmosphere immersive. Thanks to Edelweiss and the publisher for a digital ARC.
