I loved every minute of this book. It's fantastic! It's beautifully written and, for better or worse, I loved the characters - Trefor being a particular favorite. It's a great standalone novel, telling a complete story which keeps you on your toes throughout. I really enjoyed the style of writing, balancing the magical adventure with both humor and heartache. I'll be adding more books from Emily Lloyd Jones to my tbr.

More stories should include cheeky boot stealing dogs!

Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the ARC of this book, in exchange for an honest review.
