5.0

This was a much needed gem of a book after going through a drab spell. This book is masterfully written by a witty storyteller who brings depth and dimension to her world and its characters. I was completely enchanted all the way through and I cannot wait to start the next book in the series.

The author's way of depicting the fairies was hauntingly beautiful and dark and probably my favourite aspect of the story. I much prefer fairies that are based in historical folklore compared to Disney fairies.

I'm an extremely critical reader and hard to please. It is a relief to finally be able to give a book 5 stars after so many months of 2 or 3 star books.
