Review: Hemlock & Silver by T. Kingfisher

August 21, 2025 by chilcottharry Leave a Comment

Hemlock & Silver is a great retelling, unique in its approach, with stellar characters and a fun adventure narrative at its core. Anja was one of my favourite characters that I’ve been on a journey with this year!

The result is a […]
