The Bone Key: The Necromantic Mysteries of Kyle Murchison Booth by Sarah Monette

5.0

Sarah Monette's work is so well done. This collection of Kyle Murchison Booth stories range from very scary to mildly fantastical, but all of them do amazing things with character development and worldbuilding. Some aspects of Kyle's life are recognizable to those who read historical fiction, but much of it is wilder than that. The best story in the collection is easily "Drowning Palmer" which balances recognizable schoolboy drama with something much more supernatural.
