A review by theunfriendlyghost
The Witch King by H.E. Edgmon

4.0

I was super in love with this concept from the start, and that’s really what kept me reading as fast as I did. The booming Fae-featured fantasy industry is in desperate need of lgbtqa+ and antiracist representation and this book delivered!
I’m not the target audience, as our main character Wyatt is only seventeen, so I didn’t love how young the dialogue felt, but I think a few years ago I would have found it extremely charming.
The narrative style too wasn’t my personal favourite but I loved the vibrant characters and fun plot enough to accept that.
This was a fast paced, entertaining, and extremely creative story. I loved the colourful descriptions of vastly diverse characters and their appearances. This wasn’t just diversity out of obligation; the author clearly put time and effort and passion into each described character.
I can’t wait to see what they write next!
