Marlinchen and her two sisters live with their wizard father in a city shifting from magic to industry. As Oblya’s last true witches, she and her sisters are little more than a tourist trap as they treat their clients with archaic remedies and beguile them with nostalgic charm.

Historia
Effy Sayre has always believed in fairy tales. Haunted by visions of the Fairy King since childhood, she’s had no choice. Her tattered copy of Angharad—Emrys Myrddin’s epic about a mortal girl who falls in love with the Fairy King, then destroys him—is the only thing keeping her afloat. So when Myrddin’s family announces a contest to redesign the late author’s estate, Effy feels certain it’s her destiny. But musty, decrepit Hiraeth Manor is an impossible task, and its residents are far from welcoming.

I decided that Orion Lake needed to die after the second time he saved my life. Everyone loves Orion Lake. Everyone else, that is. Far as I’m concerned, he can keep his flashy combat magic to himself. I’m not joining his pack of adoring fans. I don’t need help surviving the Scholomance, even if they do. Forget the hordes of monsters and cursed artifacts; I’m probably the most dangerous thing in the place. Just give me a chance and I’ll level mountains and kill untold millions, making myself the dark queen of the world.

Roshar is a world of stone and storms. Uncanny tempests of incredible power sweep across the rocky terrain so frequently that they have shaped ecology and civilization alike. Animals hide in shells, trees pull in branches, and grass retracts into the soilless ground. Cities are built only where the topography offers shelter. It has been centuries since the fall of the 10 consecrated orders known as the Knights Radiant, but their Shardblades and Shardplate remain: mystical swords and suits of armor.

Resumen del Editor
In the vein of Naomi Novik’s New York Times best seller Spinning Silver and Katherine Arden’s national best seller The Bear and the Nightingale, this unforgettable debut - inspired by Hungarian history and Jewish mythology - follows a young pagan woman with hidden powers and a one-eyed captain of the Woodsmen as they form an unlikely alliance to thwart a tyrant.
In her forest-veiled pagan village, Évike is the only woman without power, making her an outcast clearly abandoned by the gods. The villagers blame her corrupted bloodline - her father was a Yehuli man, one of the much-loathed servants of the fanatical king. When soldiers arrive from the Holy Order of Woodsmen to claim a pagan girl for the king’s blood sacrifice, Évike is betrayed by her fellow villagers and surrendered.
But when monsters attack the Woodsmen and their captive en route, slaughtering everyone but Évike and the cold, one-eyed captain, they have no choice but to rely on each other. Except he’s no ordinary Woodsman - he’s the disgraced prince, Gáspár Bárány, whose father needs pagan magic to consolidate his power. Gáspár fears that his cruelly zealous brother plans to seize the throne and instigate a violent reign that would damn the pagans and the Yehuli alike. As the son of a reviled foreign queen, Gáspár understands what it’s like to be an outcast, and he and Évike make a tenuous pact to stop his brother.
As their mission takes them from the bitter northern tundra to the smog-choked capital, their mutual loathing slowly turns to affection, bound by a shared history of alienation and oppression. However, trust can easily turn to betrayal, and as Évike reconnects with her estranged father and discovers her own hidden magic, she and Gáspár need to decide whose side they’re on, and what they’re willing to give up for a nation that never cared for them at all.

Nice folklore, bland character
I personally found this book suffered from going through the motions of the plot for the sake of getting through them more than for the sake of the joy of seeing the action unfold. The characters were more like vague archetypes than vibrant people. The strength of the book was really in the feeling of folklore about it and I think it did deliver on that well.

Hard to get through it
I bailed at chapter 15. The story is well-written and the narrator is excellent. My problem was listening to the mean-spirited heroine of the tale. A backstory is laid out to accommodate the anger, viciousness and meanness, bit it is still difficult to listen to chapter after chapter. Add the incessant whinging and Ian sorry to have spent time with the unlikable character.

Interesting read
I liked the angsty slowburn quality of the story, especially closer to the end we had some chef's kiss angsty dialogue that truly gave me life, but there were many things that weren't explained quite well. Spoilers: For example I didn't understand how Evike suddenly found her father in a big city, or how the Yehuli magic actually worked. It just seemed too strange, even for a world with magic. The stuff with hunting the magic bird was also a bit off. I feel like the core of the story was really good but maybe it needed more polishing.

meh
The character development leaves something to be desired. It was a love story with weird magic and a lot of easily defeated monsters, very lackluster heros. I finished it but wouldn't recommend.

Struggled to finish but glad I did.
The narrator sounds like most others. Kind of boring in parts but beautifully written.

Good book but not for me
I think the book was well written and honestly a good story but I found myself zoning out at times and just waiting for the next thing to happen.
There were also a lot of things that made it feel YA even though I expected a more mature plot line/approach to the challenges they faced
But I would still recommend I gave 4 stars but it’s more a 3.5 for me

Beautiful, dark folklore.
Just to get this out of the way, this book might not be for everyone. Some reads are like a simply delicious cupcake that you’ve been craving. Ava Reid’s stories are not cupcakes. They’re like sitting down with another culture’s food that is different than you’re used to. The flavors are complicated and different from you’re usual fare. And you’ll either end up wondering how you’ve been missing out on this kind of food all your life. Or you’ll be like, “Meh. Not for me.”
I do hope you’ll give this story or author a chance thought. She has a very poetic writing style. And it actually does kind of read like it’s being told by an old storyteller. It reads like folklore. Which is cool to me. If that’s not usually what you like, this might not be your favorite read.
Anyways, loved it.

Great world building
My favorite part of this book was the lore. Everything was so interesting and surprising.

Uneventful and Unfulfilling
I finished this book on the 6th, but really debated if I wanted to review it or not. I decided to because it was bugging me.
The story was so uneventful and unfulfilling. It's like nothing exciting happened. There were events and things were done in reaction to those events, but overall nothing blew my mind and things just kind of went along.
The protagonist was so... boring. She just "went along" with events. She wasn't really proactive. She didn't go out of her way to do anything or initiate anything. Anything that she did do was because the story required her to do it in order to make it a story and fill her role as protagonist. I found her character weak and pathetic, to be quite honest.
The story kept me interested enough to finish it, but I don't think I'm ever going to suggest this book to anyone.
And as a side note, I hated the ending. It just reiterated "going along" with the story.
In some books, the narrator makes or breaks the story. Well... this narrator went along. She wasn't bad just perfect for this bland story.
