Loved this installment of the Wayward Children series, another prequel. I love the tragic aspect of these prequels, where we already know the ending before we start. Again I loved the worldbuilding of the Goblin Market, and the deeper characterisation of Lundy. Cynthia is a very pleasant narrator to listen to.
Wheelhouses: travel to another world, prequel, tragedy, immersive worldbuilding.
