Publisher's Summary

The Lord of Stariel is dead. Long live the Lord of Stariel. Whoever that is.

Everyone knows who the magical estate will choose for its next ruler. Or do they? Will it be the lord’s eldest son, who he despised? His favourite nephew, with the strongest magical land-sense? His scandalous daughter, who ran away from home years ago to study illusion?

Hetta knows it won’t be her, and she’s glad of it. Returning home for her father’s funeral, all Hetta has to do is survive the family drama and avoid entanglements with irritatingly attractive local men until the Choosing. Then she can leave. But whoever Stariel chooses will have bigger problems than eccentric relatives to deal with.

Winged, beautifully deadly problems.

For the first time in centuries, the fae are returning to the Mortal Realm, and only the Lord of Stariel can keep the estate safe. In theory.

The Lord of Stariel is the first book in the Stariel quartet.

Really enjoyed

Now really considering buying it as an audiobook. Would much rather that buying a book as an audiobook would mesn we also got access to an ebook version of it and that they could be downloaded so we're not restricted just to audible.

I'll be damned...

I wasn't intending on reading much of this book. I was looking for a cozy fantasy read and I checked in to the first chapter here not really feeling much inspired. But, then I found myself coming back. And again. until to my surprise I was rounding the final chapters.
I will give AJ this, they do a very good job of treading the line of an interesting but not distressing plot. I do give this a vote as a cozy fantasy read.

Was Okay

Well written, interesting characters, neat premise, but so slow. Also not enough adventure for me. Had a very Jane Austen fell.
