Kingfisher never disappoints, and What Feasts at Night is no exception. This follow up to What Moves the Dead finds retired soldier Alex Easton heading back to their family's hunting lodge in Gallacia as a favor to Miss Potter. Things are immediately amiss, with the caretaker gone, and only get stranger from there.
I loved the first book, but I feel we really got to know Alex better in this installment. Their vulnerability, humor, and stubbornness are a joy to experience. I read some parts of Beasts aloud for my husband, a combat veteran, and he wished me to inform dearest Ursula that the depiction of the everlasting quality of war, and PTSD, were the most accurate he's ever heard. This alone earns Beasts 5 stars - you made him cry Madame Vernon, and that is no small feat.
In short, it is spectacularly written with a rich atmosphere and characters that sprung to life from the page.
