In an Absent Dream by Seanan McGuire

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Another prequel entry in the Wayward Children series. I read this almost entirely in one sitting because I was transfixed. I love logic fantasy worlds and I loved the idea of this one where the world enforces a sense of balance and fairness. As with many of the novellas in this series, it has a lot of tragic twists and turns for the portal worlds are not forgiving places. (A solid deconstruction of the idea as also explored the Magicians trilogy)

I saw a lot of myself in Lundy and I saw a lot of my eldest in her too.

This continues to be an incredible series to read.
