Description
Alizhan spent her life in service to Iriyat ha-Varensi as a mind-reading thief of secrets - until she uncovered Iriyat’s crimes. Possessed of both political and magical influence, Iriyat is almost untouchable. Alizhan has stolen a book that might prove Iriyat’s guilt, if only someone could read its encoded text.
Alizhan and her companion, Ev, leave the constant sun of their homeland to sail for the Nightward coast. They pin their hopes on His Highness Prince Ilyr of Nalitzva, a man rumored to understand any language, even one he’s never encountered. But Ilyr is not who he claims to be, and danger lurks in the long shadows of the glittering court.
Nalitzvan palace guards confiscate the book and throw Ev and Alizhan into prison. Their cellmate, a prickly and mysterious islander, offers to help them break free and steal it back. They reluctantly join forces and set off on a journey that will test their budding romance and take them farther into the Night as they race to stop Iriyat.

Incredible, underknown series full of representation!
Felicia Davin, the talented author of Thornfruit, book 1 of The Gardeners Hand series, continues with this second instalment. I think so often in series the first book is the best and the following books spend their time fighting to be as good. This is NOT the case here. Each book is spectacular in its own right, and builds so magnificently on the previous one.
The world building talent of this author is exposed as the characters travel farther across the world and see new places with new people, cultures and vibes. Each translates flawlessly. Something I have felt when reading modern fantasy sometimes is a feeling that we didn’t get enough time in each place or situation. But Felicia Davin let’s us soak in each environment. They show us the nuances and feelings each place elicits while not feeling rushed or forced. I think this is a main compelling feature of the second book. Transitioning through different settings can be difficult and the author said “I see you, and I raise you”.
I loved seeing how they went even deeper into the characters personality and psyche that we already knew, and flawlessly intertwined the new characters that we meet along the way. So often when I’m reading I can guess every twist and turn and this author surprised me in the best way, over and over again.
I think every person should read these books, but especially if you’re queer, poc, trans, poly, or neurodivergent. These are a MUST read for fantasy lovers.
Thank you Felicia Davin for writing such an important and genuinely good series! I can’t wait to read everything you have written!
