Blackbringer

“Good night, Magpie. Dream of magic,” he called back. “You too.”

A magical dream is exactly what reading this book felt like! It was magical, earthy, epic and emotional. Who knew faeries could be all that in one story? I loved it from start to finish. Laini Taylor certainly has an amazing way with words, creating atmosphere few other others manage to create. Her lyrical writing creates visions of ancient things and other worldly things and yet still manages to keep her characters relatable and down to earth - even if they are tiny winged creatures of magic and tall tales. Laini Taylor's world of Dreamdark was a wonderfully magical place to visit, filled with faeries and imps and Djinn, it is a world that blurs the lines of myths and fairytales into something unique and an edge of your seat adventure story that feels both new and old at the same time. Can't express how much I loved this book! Highly recommended!
