Restores your faith in humanity

A gentle story that deals with some hard issues. The central characters are beautifully created and although you don’t immediately love Eleanor, by chapter 5 you want to rent her your spare room.

She lives her life guarded, hurt and stuck in her routines. She has no interest in the lives of others and struggles to understand the behaviours of her colleagues, but her weekends are devastatingly lonely.

An unusual series of events opens Eleanor’s eyes to lives of those around her and to the beauty of letting others in to your world.

Why did I wait so long to read this book?

Why did I wait so long to read this book? Maybe I was afraid taking up the mantel of the winter knight would ruin a great character. Oh me of little faith. Butcher did a fantastic job. Humorous and heavy he actually answers some questions while he teases you over more. He even does some wonderful world building of the nevernever (14 books in and he still surprises) I found out more about the Fae in this book than any of his others.
