Wild Blood by Kate Thompson
3.0
I'm happy to have finished the trilogy but found this last the least pleasing of the books in the Switchers series. It seems a bit churlish to complain about but I found Tess' continual obtuseness and inability to believe in magic, fairies and Ireland's old myths aggravating: after all, she believed in Krools and a vampire, and is a Switcher. I tried to tell myself if was KT characterisation of self-absorbed adolescence but I was more annoyed with Tess in this, than any of the other books.
Still, I do love the vibrancy of Ireland's legends and the palpability of its fairy-world (and the amorality of it, too) that having Tess' story weave into a story of Irish fairies was most enjoyable.
And I would have read it in a sitting if I did not have to cycle 100kms over the weekend.
