The Falconer by Elizabeth May

5.0

Faerie murder and a badass heroine? Sign me up!

I had just finished reading a very popular fantasy novel that fell incredibly flat (*coughtogcough*), so The Falconer was exactly what I needed to get back into my favorite genre. It didn't wait to get interesting, with immediate mystery and action within the first chapter.

Kiaran is sexy and intriguing, with a faerie bad boy backstory, and a wicked Celtic name. On that note, there's a whole lot of Celtic verbiage, steampunk vibes, and Victorian Scottish goodness.

I literally looked forward to the end of the day just so I could pick this book up and read some more, and I was THRILLED to find out that it's an entire trilogy. When the first in a trilogy makes me that excited, you know it's about to be a great ride. I can't wait to dive into the rest.
