Into the Windwracked Wilds by A. Deborah Baker
4.0
Thank you Netgalley for the advanced listener copy of this title. It's such a treat when you get to listen to books like these. (Opinions are entirely my own.)
A. Deborah Baker (a pseudonym for Seanan McGuire), is an incredibly gifted writer and also wildly prolific. She creates such unique and fantastical worlds that cross over into one another, where logic bends and everything that happens is felt so deeply by the reader.
I love Avery and Zib, two incredibly unlikely companions, whose relationship has become a beautiful and deep friendship over the course of these books. I am utterly charmed by their companions, their ever-expanding group is so lovely to explore the up and under with.
My only criticism ( and it's not one I am that concerned about ) is that these books do not work well as stand alones. They may be better off in a larger volume as opposed to smaller books. They do tell a full story arch, but so much of that story feels reliant on your knowledge of the previous books. Not a large problem for me since I fully intend to read them all, but it might be for other readers.
