I look forward to the next installment of Daughter of Smoke and Bone Miss Taylor! I dont like rating less than two as I understand that a lot of effort goes into writing the stories and regardless of my opinion on a book (unless I find it truly terrible) no book deserves a one star rating I really wanted to but didn't enjoy the story, and I found its saving graces to be the minor characters and the dialogue. I did find myself thinking of this story to be much like Fern Gully, I know the story is a completely different thing but the way Magpie's character comes across made me picture the stubborn fairy in that cartoon. It gave the characters a bit more depth to them and made them a little more likable. I loved the crows in this book though, I love how caring they are towards Magpie and how they treat her like one of their own, the dialogue was also a good if not risky idea, as not many people can understand the aye's, nays and kens of the Scottish language. However in this story it never worked in favour and instead made this book long winded and hard to convince oneself to pick up the damn book and finish it.Īt times this book was good and I found myself wondering what was going to happen next eagerly turning the page.to find Im back to reading something of no interest whatsoever. While the plot was a gripping idea the actual story was.boring.Īfter reading Daughter of Smoke and Bone I knew that Laini Taylor was one for making poetry out of words, thus making the story longer. However the book just seemed to go on and on and on and on and on and. There's a new problem in her fun filled world and its called the Blackbringer and its going to destroy Dreamdark if Magpie cant stop it! Faeries of Dreamdark: Blackbringer has a great concept with Magpie Windwich being a Devil Hunting fairy who travels with crows around the land to capture the escaped snags and put them back in their bottles.
