Master of Crows by Grace Draven
4.0
I picked this up after getting sent it in a book box. I wrongly assumed that I was released within the last few years. While reading I kept thinking to myself that writing style felt a little dated. Lo and behold it was published in 2009. It wasn’t a bad thing. Just some of the words and phrases are things you don’t read often these days.
Overall I really enjoyed the romance. I liked the slow burn vibes throughout the story. I was a little unsure how I would ultimately feel about the romance because the male main character kept being pretty rude about the female main characters looks at the beginning of the story. I think the author was Trying to portray that she was plain and unassuming besides her voice. By the end he had won me over and I was rooting for their relationship. There were a few spicy scenes throughout the second half of the book. Just a couple few cringy moments, where the author used words like “cunnus” to describe her female bits. The rest of the description was well done.
The side characters of the story were interesting as well. My particular favorite was Gern. The side characters and the Villians of the story felt well fleshed out for the most part.
I also liked the world building. The world was easy to picture, and had the perfect dark vibe that fit the story and world. I wish the magic was a little more clearly explained. Overall though I thought it was well written.
I would read other books from this author.
