The Last of the High Kings by Kate Thompson
5.0
Wow. Just....wow. So incredible! I found it impossible to put this book down, and I read it all in one sitting. The plot is so perfectly woven, and all those little mysteries come together so deliciously.
I adore every single character! I loved meeting our old friend J.J. grown up with a family of his own, the destructive and adorable two-year-old Aidan, the mysterious Jenny, the chilling puka, good old Mikey, and the dependable Donal. I usually don't like books with too many POVs, but the different perspectives are handled flawlessly in the writing, and I never even noticed the changes because I was so wrapped up in the story.
The writing is nothing short of spectacular! Every word is so flavorful, and I found myself whispering the words aloud as I read. The gorgeous Irish setting and background of fairy legends is so strong that it's practically its own character. I felt immersed in this enchanting world of fairies, ghosts, and changelings who hobnob with poor human folk.
I can't wait to read more from this author!
