My Review on Goodreads
Introduction
This novella details Zuzana courting Mik and their first date. This is alluded to in the main series, but this small book delves into how she was able to make a map that led to herself as the prize (hint: magic). It starts with a story about Zuzana bringing Karou to her family's workshop, and we get to hear more about her family life. In the audiobook, Mik is voiced by a male when the chapters are in his POV.
Final Verdict
This is very quirky and sweet, devoid of the seriousness of the series. does have some magical elements and some comedy. If you have read up to the second book in this series, you already know the basis of what happened. The writing is still fantastic, so if you like Taylor's writing style, it does not disappoint. According to the author's website, the ebook and physical copy has illustrations inside, some of which are on her website. If you don't like romance or overly sweet scenarios, this may not be for you, as it is a departure from the tone of the rest of the series. However, it is only 2 hours and 46 minutes long, so it's not a huge commitment.
Fun fact: Marionettes creep me out. |
