The story is filtered through the MC's emotions and feelings regarding relationships. There's a lot of introspection and also a lot of shallowness.
Its pace is mercurial, accurately illustrating a different character's personality and also the change in POV that's telling this story. Drowned Country picks up where Silver in the Wood left off and the story is communicated in jumps and starts. There's mystery and intrigue as Silver in the Wood unfolds and I was left satisfied and gratified at its close. Like all good faerie tales, some of the beings are benign, some are benevolent, and some are a menace to humanity. Emily Tesh's elegant turn of phrase and graceful, lyrical writing captures that otherworldly ethereal beauty of the Hallowed Wood, giving us all a glimpse into things we usually can not see. Silver in the Wood is more of a straight up faerie tale. A second supernatural adventure to enjoy. At the time I read the story I sincerely hoped Emily Tesh wanted to continue writing about this universe and Yes! Drowned Country is included here too! Awesome.
I happened upon Silver in the Wood a while ago and was excited an audio version was scheduled for release.
