One small mistake gives Sala the ability to control one Sylph and that sets up a series of events that has crushing consequences. What happens when one selfish, manipulative girl, uses the loyalty and honor of the sylphs to her advantage? Sala is a girl seeking to be queen and will test the Sylph’s loyalty and honor, the bond between Sylph and master, and the trust between villager and Sylph, in her quest to be queen.īecause of the Sylph’s honor, a Sylph cannot disobey a command from their master or their queen. I usually hate when the POV changes throughout the story but in this book, it is necessary.Įach POV contributes to the telling of the story and gives the reader a better understanding of what is happening. In fact, the story is told by alternating character POV. While the character list may seem mountainous, McDonald develops each character perfectly and makes the story flow smoothly.
Leon, Justin, Gabralina, Wat, Claw, Rachel, Nelson, Galway, Devon, and Dillon In addition to our previous main characters, we have some of the minor characters from the previous books playing a larger part including: Mace and The Widow- (the main characters from A Midwinter Fantasy (Strangely Beautiful, #2.5) (Sylph, #2.5)) Ril and Lizzie- (the main characters from the Shattered Sylph) Heyyou and Solie- (the main characters from The Battle Sylph) In Queen of the Sylph, we have so many returning characters that play a vital part to the story including: I did not see any flaws, so forgive me now if they are there, and I did not point them out. When I love a book, I love it with my entire being, and sometimes my love will blind me to flaws in the story. I have a hard time finding any weaknesses for books like this one. I’m happy to say, not only was I not disappointed, but this book easily exceeded all my expectations!Īs a reviewer, you try to explain a book’s strengths and weaknesses so that other readers can figure out if they want to read the book. With my high expectations and my love for this series, I was prepared to be disappointed. I was like a squealing fangirl when I received an ARC copy of Queen of the Sylphs. I read The Shattered Sylph (book 2 in the Sylph series) and almost immediately began bugging the author for the release dates of the next book in the series. I fell in love with McDonald’s The Battle Sylph (book 1 in the Sylph series) and craved more.
Sometimes a book grabs you, and places you in the author’s beautifully created world so effectively you cannot imagine the story ending.
