Summary

'Dark and dangerous and teeming with romance, A Feather So Black is an exhilarating adventure that walks the edge of a blade. Truly enchanting' Rachel Gillig, NYT bestselling author of One Dark Window

***THE NUMBER ONE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER***

The Cruel Prince meets For the Wolf in a sizzling fantasy romance set in a world of perilous magic and moonlit forests, spinning a seductive tale of a changeling princess, her cursed sister, and the dangerous fae lord she must defeat to save her family.

In a kingdom where magic has been lost, Fia is a rare changeling, left behind by the wicked Fair Folk when they stole the High Queen's daughter Eala and locked the gates to the Otherworld.

When a hidden gate to the Otherworld is discovered, Fia is tasked by the High Queen to retrieve Eala and break her curse. But she doesn't go alone: with her is prince Rogan, Eala's betrothed and Fia's childhood best friend.

As the two journey into a world where magic winds through the roots of the trees and beauty can be a deadly illusion, Fia's mission is complicated by her feelings for the prince. . . and her unexpected attraction to the dark-hearted fae lord holding Eala captive. Irian might be more monster than man, but he seems to understand Fia in a way no one ever has.

too long

I liked the story but felt it took too long to get to the point and was a little easy to predict where it would go. That said, I liked the world and magic and the characters.

the voice actress 10/10

the story was okay, it was a little drawn out with not a lot to it at some points. I feel the ending didn't really finish the whole story up, maybe it's meant to have a part 2?

Magical world and interesting story

Read/listened to this and the Irish accent made it an easy listen.
The story is beautiful, a little slow paced but it was nice to have alongside a couple of more intense books I’m currently reading. There were pockets of action and the build up to the final 20% was steady with interesting characters and spin on the swan Princess. Slow burn romance with a little spice and more about the relationships and character growth and world building
