Things are looking up.
For the first time in what feels like years, October "Toby" Daye has been able to pause long enough to take a breath and look at her life - and she likes what she sees. She has friends. She has allies. She has a squire to train and a King of Cats to love, and maybe, just maybe, she can let her guard down for a change.
Or not. When Queen Windermere's seneschal is elf-shot and thrown into an enchanted sleep by agents from the neighboring Kingdom of Silences, Toby finds herself in a role she never expected to play: that of a diplomat. She must travel to Portland, Oregon, to convince King Rhys of Silences not to go to war against the Mists. But nothing is that simple, and what October finds in Silences is worse than she would ever have imagined.
How far will Toby go when lives are on the line and when allies both old and new are threatened by a force she had never expected to face again? How much is October willing to give up, and how much is she willing to change? In Faerie, what's past is never really gone.
It's just waiting for an opportunity to pounce.
A Red-Rose Chain is the ninth installment in Seanan McGuire's urban fantasy October "Toby" Daye series.

Good book

Mary Robinette Kowal is an excellent narrator; impeccable timing, varied vocal range - male, female and "other". She also infuses just the right amount of snark to Toby, teenage petulance and naivete to Quinn, old world weariness, sarcasm and "poetry" to Tybalt, new found freedom and empowerment to May, anguish to Walther... Anyway, you get the point - she is just a perfect choice to voice this series.
Enchanting...

Another reviewer mentions other revelations that occur in later books in this series, apparently claiming that because one character had a hetero relationship in one story & later becomes involved in a gay relationship, it's another case of so-called virtue signaling. You'd think by the homophobic reviewers here that the series has developed into constant hardcore gay erotica. Instead, some characters are revealed to be gay, others are exploring their feelings & may be gay or bi or straight, & this series is one of the least sexuallly graphic series of urban paranormal I've read. That's for any orientation-gay, straight, or multi.
The narrator definitely has some issues. She reads for the main character great. Since it is first person, that means it's often enjoyable. Unfortunately, for the main interest of the main character, the way the narrator voices him is nothing short of atrocious. Most other characters are okay, male & female, but for Tybalt, I want to claw my own ears. There's also a secondary female character that has become my fave, & the way the narrator reads for her is like she's using nails on a chalkboard.
She does these voices so terribly that I usually go back to reading the books to escape.
Most of all, I wanted to kill the reviews that are crying about virtue signaling, b/c this ain't that. It's seriously so far away from virtue signaling that the reviewers are clearly only homo/transphobic & are making a very good portrayal of life & love into something that is just flat out false.
The narration complaints, while not horrible across all characters, are so atrocious on a couple that I do recommend switching to the written version if that's possible, because the stories are great & the narration can be bad enough to detract from a wonderful experience.
Ignore the comments about 'virtue signaling'
