Ostatnia scena pomiędzy Cardanem a Jude skradła moje serce <3
ahalsnad's review against another edition

It was nice to see the situations that shaped Carden and see from his perspective how several events over the trilogy came to be. Several incidents from his childhood, his friendship with Nicasia, his feelings for Jude, and his friendship with the gang, help the reader sympathize with him.
The three variations to the story with different morals exchanged between Aslog and Carden were interesting, even though the premise was the same. Also, the artwork in the book was beautiful!
I understand the reason for executing the book the way she did, but it wasn't very engaging as the stories were too short and the connection between them was too thin. A very breezy read, indeed!

4/5 [3/8/22] i’ve read the folk of the air series a while back and this novella just reminded of how good the series was and how much i enjoyed reading it.
how the king of elfhame learned to hate stories was definitely short and sweet and felt like one of those children’s storybooks i’ve had when i was little; the illustrations were absolutely gorgeous. the fact that it was told in cardan’s pov just made it better, as we get to see his perspective through flashbacks from scenes particularly from the cruel prince to the events that followed after queen of nothing. this was a wonderous and magical addition to the series and i would definitely recommend especially to those attached to jude and cardan and the world that is elfhame.
