The Hum and the Shiver

To me, Alex Bledsoe wrote a perfect book. It's subtle, but not dull in any way. It's got great characters without resorting to cliche. It's got a fresh concept, but still feels familiar. I didn't think I was going to like this book, but I ended up loving it from cover to cover.

Bledsoe's continued work in the Tufa realm shows that he's created a rich, deep world worth mining.
