Song of the Huntress

This is a retelling of the Wild Hunt.
Herla mistakenly asked for help to ensure Boudica's victory, but she was tricked. Hundreds of years later, she is still trying to right that wrong. Herla and her sisters of the hunt are determined to fight.
With war brewing between humans and the Otherworld, they will have to choose sides.

I loved the setting and all the historical aspects. Great characters. The writing was just a bit flowery for me. Otherwise I thought it was great.

Thank you to Net Galley and the publisher for an e-arc.

Lucy Holland's “Song of the Huntress” grabbed my attention from the first couple pages and and held it firmly until the last.

Queen Æthelburg and Herla of the Wild Hunt are the sort of characters I enjoy reading about. They are both strong women who know what they want, know what they need to do, and know when something has to give.

The writing is poetic and descriptions are vivid. Action scenes are well thought out and emotional reactions are described beautifully.

I've not yet read “Sister Song” by the same author, but since reading this one, I did purchase it.

Thanks to NetGalley for the opportunity to read “Song of the Huntress” in return for an honest review.
