Written by Allen McGill, this novel follows a carriage driver as he escorts his charge across a dangerous forest. And here, there be monsters.
This book was very well written and did an excellent job of balancing the unknown with details, and really painting pictures for the reader. Personally, I loved the writing style that McGill employed as it kept the story in a fairytale realm while still inducting us into the coachman’s life.
As the book progresses, we see more and more of the Lady as well as those who are following her – or at least appear to be. And we get to meet some more characters (I shall say no more to avoid any spoilers).
If you enjoy fairytale retellings, mystery, some romance, and a lot of dark lore-style stories, I think this could be a great option for you. If none of those sound interesting, perhaps this isn’t the book for you.
I did receive a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
