An Artificial Night: An October Daye Novel, Book 3

I thought I had this book already, because the description noted was for Book 2, A Local Habitation, in which Toby investigates January's problems in the Country of Tamed Lightening. This is Book 3, An Artificial Night. Correct description: Toby is dismayed to encounter her frighteningly upbeat Fetch, May Daye, a magical doppelgänger heralding her imminent demise. Hot on its heels comes the discovery that Blind Michael, lord of the Wild Hunt, has kidnapped a number of fae and human children--including several whom Toby considers family--to replenish his riders. Enjoyable addition to the series.

I purchased "An Artificial Night" after listening to the first two books on my iPod. I loved this book! The characters were well developed and the plot was excellent! The book has strong sequencing and the arc of the story was wonderful. I've read many, many SF-F books from all the highly acclaimed authors and this ranks right up with the best of them.

Purchase this title. You'll be glad you did.

I fell in love with the Seanan McGuire / Mary Robinette Kowal pairing from the first book I listened to. Late Eclipses is a continuation of that awesome pairing. Mary's voice characterizations are just fabulous. I hope she reads my books some day.

A fun book to listen to, a very captivating and well written piece of fiction.

This is the one. This is the book that makes the series. If a series can't get you hooked by the third book, it won't. This book had me at the second, but this is the one where it really, really pulled me in.

If you have any interest at all in supernatural mysteries, buy this book, even if the first one didn't hook you.

Toby gets run near to death this time, and with good reason. She's got to pull out all the stops to save stolen children, and eventually, herself.

We find our heroin in the dark and scary lands of Blind Michale ,one of the first born who has a thing for stealing children from there beds in the dead of night ,when he takes Toby's friends Mitch and Stacy kids she is on a mission to rescue them, but the price is a high one.
Seanan get's a little dark in this one and I don't scare easily but this was a little unnerving I love these books and I would recommend every single one I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did .

This is a VERY enjoyable series. It's a wonderful additional to the paranormal genre. If you're looking for a new series in this genre - you owe it to yourself to give this a try! Mary Robinette Kowal brings the characters of Toby Daye's world to life - highly recommended!

It just keeps getting better and better. Late Eclipses will be released in November and the minute it's available on Audible, it's going straight to my cart. Start with Rosemary and Rue, read the books in order, and you won't be disappointed. The writing and the narration are both excellent.
