The Spinner's Web

This was a great start to a series, the characters were great and I thoroughly enjoyed getting to know this universe and the people that live in this world. It was a fun premise and I look forward to reading more in this series.

I was instantly drawn into this story. It lived up to the intrigue of it's summary and felt so vivid and fresh. Love, love, loved it!! I cannot wait to read book 2.

I have a lot of thoughts about this book. I really struggled with getting through the first half or so of the book, but once I got past that I was totally hooked. I think part of my barrier was just kind of the lack of explanation surrounding the world and everything going on, especially at the beginning. The brothel situation didn't make a ton of sense to me, and neither did Fate's age/how time worked in the world. I really enjoyed Hero as a character and watching his and Fate's relationship grow was really fun. The mystery surrounding the dreams and the folklore I thought was one of the more innovative aspects of the story and the ties between dream and real were really intriguing. I really enjoyed the cliffhanger the ending left on and I'm excited to see what happens next in the series!

Unlike anything I've read before. I love the writing style of these authors together and the unique take they have on the story of Fate. I also liked the gruesome detail they added to make the story feel more alive, rather than leaving the detail to the imagination.
