Book description
A Dark and Hollow Star Review
Ashley Shuttleworth delivers a refreshing urban fantasy that breathes new life into the faerie genre. Set against the backdrop of Toronto's magical underworld, this audiobook follows four distinct narrators whose voices blend seamlessly in the audio format.
The story's strength lies in its character-driven approach. Each protagonist brings unique perspective and motivation to the investigation of ritualistic murders threatening to expose faerie existence to humans. Shuttleworth's background in English Literature and classical history enriches the world-building, creating a mythology that feels both familiar and innovative.
What sets this debut apart is its unapologetic queerness and the authentic way each character's identity integrates naturally into the plot rather than serving as mere tokenism. The audio format particularly benefits from the distinct vocal performances that help differentiate between the multiple POVs.
The pacing maintains tension throughout, balancing mystery elements with political intrigue between the Eight Courts of Folk and the brewing war between mortal and immortal realms. While the premise initially echoes works like The Cruel Prince and City of Bones, Shuttleworth's voice emerges distinctly through sharp dialogue and morally complex characters who operate in compelling gray areas.
The audiobook's production quality supports the narrative well, with sound design that enhances rather than overwhelms the listening experience. This is urban fantasy that respects its audience's intelligence while delivering the escapism fans of the genre crave.
A promising start to what appears will be an engaging series.
