Review:

The Knight and the Moth was a slow, arduous read but well worth it.

 

I'll have to be honest, the only time I could really enjoy this book was when I was on Adderall. It's a slow, dense book I felt myself really slogging through at times. I don't know if it's the pacing or writing style.

 

That being said, the twist ending and revelations in this book are so shocking that I can't help but highly recommend this book. I am still in disbelief over everything that happened the last 100 pages. Guys, I am shook.

 

In this novel Six is a diviner who dreams of portents from the Gods. When her fellow diviners disappear she decides to leave the cathedral she's called home for the last 10 years, in search of them. Accompanying her is a moral and courageous boy king who comes from a turbulent past with something to prove, a maternal lady knight, and a faithless heathen, as well as a talkative and overly emotional gargoyle that you can't help but love.

 

It's not going to be easy to get past the first half of the book but I absolutely promise you it is sooooo worth the journey. I will be thinking about this book for a very long time and you will too once you pick this one up.
