A Night of Wings and Starlight

Straight from my home state, Louisiana, we have a debut work from author, Alexis L Menard! First, I'd Like to thank the author for sending me this ARC for review; I really enjoyed it! This book was very entertaining and kept my attention the entire time I read. Alexis's writing style is very lyrical with good imagery and world-building sprinkled throughout the story. I never felt like there was “info-dumping” that took place. The world that she created was very unique as well as the cast of characters. The story was full of action and adventure that kept me very engaged. Y'all know I am a sucker for a white-haired male and Azriel is no exception. Arya is a strong young woman who doesn't accept no for an answer and comes to know her true strength. The banter between these two is so witty and fun. They have a semi-slow burn with pay off that I thought was tasteful and well-written. The action in the last few chapters had me on the edge of my seat. I took off one star because I felt like some things weren't as rounded out as I would've liked as far as level of detail in the world. Overall, I really enjoyed this book, and bravo to Alexis for her debut book and sharing this story with us all. This book is an adult fantasy 18+ for sexual content. This book will release on 4/20/22. Be sure to follow Alexis L Menard on Instagram for all the details on preorder and release.
