I read this to follow up The Raconteur's Commonplace Book, and it gave more information about some of the characters that helped me make sense of that one. (Some info may also be in Greenglass House that I have forgotten.) This was satisfying, plus it was an exciting and heartwarming book on its own. Milford does an impressive job detailing forms of magic – time walking, firestarting – that have their own logic and their own consequences, and are not just waving wands and saying Latin words. Her imaginary world, even with its touches of whimsy, feels increasingly solid to me, as if it is indeed as real a place as she asserts. I'm tempted to go on a Milford binge now and put more of the pieces together.

I am officially addicted to this world that Kate Milford has created! Before I finished this book I put The Left Hand Fates on hold and 2 others will be coming shortly.
There is a lot of family and pain and connections to Green Glass House that I already love. Enjoyable and a good introduction to a few other characters.
