Set before the Cruel Prince, this book was a great way to see a different part of the world where humans and faeries live on the same land. There is a crossover of characters from both stories, and the main character Hazel has many similarities to Jude, but there are enough differences to make it enjoyable. The ending was surprising and incredibly satisfying. Also, the LGBTQ representation is done well.
