Why Did I Read? Victorian England. Magic. YOU HAVE ME. My Thoughts: I really, really enjoyed this one! I have to say, I really am kind of a sucker for anything Victorian England. Toss in fantasy and that’s like my go to crack. I really liked the set up of this world – that there are sorcerers that protect the realm from the Ancients — a collection of monsters that prey on the people and cause general mayhem and destruction.

Why Did I Read? I really loved Sharon Cameron’s The Dark Unwinding duology so I was super excited to hear about her new release!

I don’t want to go into too much detail because I think it was really fun discovering all the twists as you read for the […]
