![]() ![]() A lone fairy, Magpie Windwitch, has revived the practice of demon-hunting, and travels the world with a troupe of actor crows in search of demons to rebottle before they can cause mischief and destruction. Since then, the fairies have declined from once-great masters of magic and knowledge to smaller, more insular tribes. (Humans, apparently, are an anomaly no one saw coming.) Four thousand years ago, the Djinn withdrew into hibernation. In Blackbringer, eight Djinn wove the Tapestry of the world, including fairies. ![]() This isn’t it, incidentally-it’s actually Taylor’s debut novel, but in many ways it’s even better. ![]() My landlady happened to borrow Blackbringer (or Dreamdark: Blackbringer for those in favour of colon book titles) from the library while seeking the third instalment of the Daughter of Smoke and Bone trilogy. I’m not saying I’m book-stalking Laini Taylor. ![]()
