This book was a complete surprise and a very happy one. I think I found this in some random recommendation list related to another book I was reading at the time. I'd never heard of Graves or seen their work anywhere else but I thought why not? Great decision.
Like I said in one of my during-reading comments, this is the adult book Holly Black wishes she wrote (referring to the disappointing “adult” Book of Night). It has many of the same elements as Black's books and draws from similar fae lore yet, while I would definitely recommend this to Black fans interested in MM, it does stand out on its own as well.
Well written with an easy to follow yet complex plot and interesting characters. I devoured this and can't wait for the next one.
