Thank you to the publisher and Colored Pages for this ARC
I was hooked on this story from the very first sentence. The first few chapters must have had me under a spell because I could not put this book down. The writing was terrific and the world-building was phenomenal. I haven't been this interested in Faes in a long time!
The story follows the three POVs of Leo (a kind-hearted boy), Tristan (a lost soul) and Aziza (a hedgewitch) as their individual quests intersect and they become closer. The magic was incredibly vivid and well crafted. The juxtaposition of horror and whimsy had me simultaneously amazed and at the edge of my seat.
Rochelle Hassan has found a new fan in me and I cannot wait for the sequels!
