Synopsis:
When 19-year-old huntress Feyre kills a wolf in the woods, a
beast-like creature arrives to demand retribution for it. Dragged to a
treacherous magical land she only knows about from legends, Feyre
discovers that her captor is not an animal, but Tamlin—one of the
lethal, immortal faeries who once ruled their world.
As
she dwells on his estate, her feelings for Tamlin transform from icy
hostility into a fiery passion that burns through every lie and warning
she's been told about the beautiful, dangerous world of the Fae. But an
ancient, wicked shadow over the faerie lands is growing, and Feyre must
find a way to stop it ... or doom Tamlin—and his world—forever.
Perfect for fans of Kristen Cashore and George R.R. Martin, this first book in a sexy and action-packed new series is impossible to put down!
Um. Kristen Cashore? Geroge R.R. Martin? Yes, please, and thank you! It seems she's carrying on her Fae theme that is present in the Throne of Glass series, but is making it a more central part of the story. Personally, I like how the cover is eerie and wicked looking, but I wish the girl on the cover wasn't so cartooned-looking. It's pretty much the same sentiment as her first series: I think her books can be geared towards older teens and adults too and the covers downplay the seriousness that is actually present in the books.
Can't wait for this next year--hopefully it'll help pass the time for the next ToG book as well :)

Ugh these covers just get better and better. My friends keep trying to convince me to read these; I haven't had time, but I must say that I could probably gaze at how pretty the covers are all day. :)
ReplyDeleteBy 'these' I should probably clarify that I mean all of Sarah J. Maas' books. xD
DeleteThat cover IS wicked looking. Love the bold colors. And although I've never read a Sarah J. Maas book, the fact that this one is likened to Kristin Cashore is a very, very good sign.
