Mir hat das Buch mehr gefallen als ich gedacht habe. Der Schreibstil war sehr märchenhaft und hat toll durch die Geschichte geführt. Ich bin bei Fantasy Einzelbänden immer recht skeptisch, aber ich hatte hier nicht das Gefühl, dass mir etwas gefehlt hat. Ich würde nicht sagen, dass man das Buch gelesen haben muss, aber für zwischendurch ist es eine süße Geschichte.

If you are looking for a nice heist fantasy standalone you should pick this up.

4,5 Stars! Of course, is this only my personal opinion of the book and just because I give this rating to the book doesn’t mean, that everyone will have that opinion. I got this ARC from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. My opinion is my own. To be honest, I haven’t read a welsh mythology retelling since picking up this book, I think. I was excited to dive right in because it was a legend I haven’t heard of, and I am a sucker for mythology retellings! This book did not disappoint! There is a good mix of a heist and fantasy. Our main female character is a bisexual water diviner in hiding, and in the progress of the story, she also meets a fae-cursed man with a corgi. Yes, you read that right. A corgi! I found this book fast-paced and had no problems with the welsh mythology words. Also, I liked the characters and wouldn’t have minded a few extra pages at the end. Maybe I will pick up the other books by this author. Conclusion If you are looking for a nice heist fantasy standalone you should pick this up.
