4.0

After a Aetherian craft crashed in Surrey in 1869—some have been sure of Aetherian beings visiting before, and now twenty five years later 'Harry' has found proof of a visit over a thousand years before. Removing it from the Cult of Egil is only the beginning.

Getting it to London from Iceland is the hardest part, especially with the Islands blockaded by Germany, but Harry, Princess Maud in truth, must get it home, for something so small as that Aetherian trinket could make all the difference in the war, and to the world.

Review for “Her Words Like Hunting Vixens Spring“ by Brooke Bolander, ~14 pages

“The first fox to come clawing up and out of her throat is a sleek gray thing with enormous ears and eyes like drops of crude. (...)
The Day My Beau Tried To Kill Me, September 17th, 1880.“


A story of revenge, Old Wild West style. With the help of a bruja, Rosa has unusual assistants on her hunt for her serial-killing ex-fiancé.

Bolander seems to like mixing her heroines with fantastical beasts.

Enjoyable, easy read. Nothing too surprising. Nice visuals.

Her Words Like Hunting Vixens Spring

Reminds me of Ursula Vernon without quite as much magic.
