Resumen del Editor

Brought to you by Penguin.

FROM THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE WOLF AND THE WOODSMAN AND JUNIPER AND THORN

If the monsters are real, so are the women who defeat them.

Effy has always believed in fairy tales. She's had no choice. Since childhood, she's been haunted by visions of the Fairy King. She's found solace only in the pages of Angharad - a beloved epic about a mortal girl who falls in love with the Fairy King, and then destroys him.

Effy's tattered copy is all that's keeping her afloat through her stifling first term her prestigious architecture college. So when the late author's family announces a contest to design his house, Effy fells certain this is her destiny.

But Hiraeth Manor is an impossible task: a musty, decrepit estate on the brink of crumbling into a hungry sea. And when Effy arrives, she finds she isn't the only one who's made a temporary home there. Preston Héloury, a stodgy young literature scholar, is studying Myrddin's papers and is determined to prove her favourite author is a fraud.

As the two rival students investigate the reclusive author's legacy, piecing together clues through his letters, books, and diaries, they discover that the house's foundation isn't the only thing that can't be trusted. There are dark forces, both mortal and magical, conspiring against them - and the truth may bring them both to ruin.

A good listen, not the best

Though the narrator’s performance was great and I initially really enjoyed the story, it fell a bit flat. The world that is created seems very interesting but could have been fleshed out a bit. The story had a fantastic set up but the ending was a disappointment. I am in a love hate relationship with this book.

Disappointing

Pros: good concept and enjoyed the writing style

Cons: The fantasy setting was quite similar to the real world didn’t really add anything.

Effy’s dislike of Preston made no sense. He borrowed some books she wanted and this is a reason to hate him!

Parts of the book read like a bad romance. The number of times Effy is about to burst into tears or stumbles or goes weak in the knees and Preston is there to catch here.

The reveals were very disappointing, you will be able to figure them out well before our main characters.

Characters also made incredibly stupid decisions sometimes just to further the plot.
