Fallowblade by Cecilia Dart-Thornton

tetipea's review against another edition

1.0

I really love Dart-Thorntons familiarity and use of folklore, however in this series she used it to pull the wool over my eyes so she could deliver what is essentially a vegan manifesto. Seriously, the plot is based on faeries being angry with humans for eating animals. This is only revealed in the final book however, the first three books are actually just a really long backstory for her mary-sue character, explaining how she is immortal, the best witch evar, and really really ridiculously good looking. For some reason her eyelids are permanently blue, the colour "of a butterflies wing", which indicates a severe vitamin deficiency - probably anemia from being a vegan. It's essentially really bad fanfiction for a book of celtic folk tales.
