A Dark and Drowning Tide by Allison Saft
4.0
ARC REVIEW
A Dark and Drowning Tide is a brilliant example of just how well acquainted Allison Saft is with her genre and her skill. Her writing style immediately immerses you in a world full of enchantment, relatable characters and well written Sapphic romance.
Saft’s dialogue is great and the characters are well formed and relatable, with sharp tongues and string personalities that shine through. Each character compliments the next perfectly.
The murder mystery aspect definitely deserved to be more fleshed out in places but it didn't take anything away from the book overall.
The unique magic of the world and the creatures along the way make for a very whimsical fantasy.
I also enjoyed how Saft touches on more serious topics throughout.
Thank you to Daphne Press and Netgalley for the ARC
