The Wailing Woman by Maria Lewis

4.0

I'd previously read The Witch Who Courted Death by Maria Lewis and really enjoyed it. I didn't realise it was part of a series until I started reading this one and discovered they were set in the same world. I'm definitely going to try and get the first two and read the start of the story because werewolves!
.
The Wailing Woman follows Sadie Burke, a voiceless banshee and Texas Contos, an Askari (kind of magic police). They're forced to go on the run, discover hidden secrets and team up with a really cool Selkie!
.
If you've read the previous books you'll enjoy meeting some familiar faces. I'd forgotten how much I love Barastin! If you haven't read the previous books you can totally pick up at this one and still follow the plot easily. Plus, there really aren't enough books about Banshees.
.
It's a lot of fun and a lot of violence! Definitely worth ordering from your favourite bookshop.

Thanks very much to the publisher Piatkus for sending me a copy.
