Long has presented us with an incredible adventure that hits the ground running, full of fascinating and interesting characters, that are also so delightfully vivid, to open a series that promises so much more to come. The writing is truly atmospheric, fast paced and flowing, without sacrificing any detail, nor weighing down the story with any needless expositing. It all happens so organically that you are fully immersed in this cold pirate world.
Nautical fantasy
Review: Dark Water Daughter (The Winter Sea #1) by H.M. Long
This is hands-down Hannah’s best book yet. And I’ve read and loved all her previous work. There’s something about Dark Water Daughter that captured me and refused to let go. I suspect this series will become a favourite of mine, I can’t wait to see where Hannah takes this story.
Review: The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi (Amina al-Sirafi #1) by Shannon Chakraborty
Humor, swashbuckling, adventure, and a strong female lead all come together to make a fantastic novel.
