London 1872
A bloody escape, a deadly threat, a shocking revelation...
As an orphan who stole the Queen's ring - only to find the ring was a reservoir that
held a truce between the world of Faerie and the British Court - Tiki’s greatest fear
suddenly becomes all too real: the fey have returned to London seeking revenge. As
war escalates in the Otherworld, Queen Victoria’s youngest son, Prince Leopold, is
attacked. In order to protect her family and those she loves, Tiki needs to know the
meaning of an fáinne sí, the birthmark that winds around her wrist. But will she be brave
enough to face the truth?

The
Torn Wing is an intriguing story with well written characters and a vivid view
of London in the 1800’s.
Tiki
and Rieker are back as well as Larkin and loads of new dark faeries wreaking
havoc on the unexpecting populous of human’s in London. My favorite of the new
additions would be Sean and Dain, both handsome and elusive, but where do their
loyalties lie? Seelie or Unseelie is the
question, you’ll have to read the book to answer said question. And Larkin, I cannot figure out which side of
the coin she lands on, to be quite honest I dislike her regardless and wish
someone would clip her wings and hide her under a BIG rock! Kudos Hamilton on
creating this dark, intense and mysterious character that leaves the reader
wondering what else can this b*tch pull out of her bag of tricks.
I
love the relationship between Tiki and Rieker and hope to see it blossom even
further in the next book. Their greatest
strength may turn out to be their greatest weakness in the end; they are both
completely and utterly selfless, putting the needs of others before themselves
always. At a mere 16 years old Tiki’s
courage and strength puts many grown men to shame. And Rieker exudes strong character, morality
and dedication his new found family of orphans.
The
mystery, intrigue, suspense and young love is what kept me reading.
There
were a few spots that were a little slow as well as a few times the
descriptions were a touch heavy; that being said, this is still a well written
novel and I would recommend it to anyone with a love for the Fae. 3.75/5 for me, but that’s just my two cents!
