I'm really loving this series and kinda kicking myself for waiting so long to start them!
Toby is always putting herself in harm's way to help someone else. Usually someone not strong enough to help themselves. This time a little of Toby's help comes from a strange place. Her "Fetch" comes to her door. A Fetch is a harbinger of death. They don't always appear to the Fae, but when they do it is supposed to signal that their end is very near.
This time Toby goes up against Blind Michael. He is a Firstborn and possibly the most powerful living Fae. He runs the Hunt and ever 100 years takes both Fae and Human children to replace the riders and mounts that he has lost over the years. This time, he takes 2 children of one of Toby's best friends. Another of their children has fallen asleep and can't awaken.
In order to get to Blind Michael's lands, Toby goes to the Luadieg for help. And the adventure begins.
I give this book a solid 4 stars. The writing is solid, and although I'm not one to read critically, there weren't any obvious plot holes or dropped threads. At least, not that I wondered about at the time. Still plenty of relationships, people, etc. for future books. That's a good thing, cuz there are currently 5 more in the series and I don't think it's done yet!
These books are more serious than her Incryptid novels, but every bit as enjoyable.
