Book Review: Forests of the Fae: The Raven Queen by K. Kibbee

Forests of the Fae: The Raven Queen
By K. Kibbee
Genre: YA Fantasy
Book Description:

A summer spent untangling a century-old mass disappearance, communing with ghosts, fleeing dark Fae Folk, and enduring her nefarious cousin Lexie would seem like tribulation enough for 13-year-old Anne, and yet her struggles have only just begun.

Though she’s closed Devlin’s Door behind her, something sinister has followed Anne from the other side. Her dearest friend Grace is not as she would seem. Something dark has taken hold of the girl . . . something not of this world. Ravens surround her, people mindlessly do her bidding, and wickedness drips from her lips. It’s only a matter of time before Anne uncovers her secret and with it, her vengeance.

Meanwhile, somewhere deep in the Forests of the Fae, the real Grace struggles to retain her humanity and escape the revolting Faerie body that imprisons her. With pet raven Onyx at her side, she is heralded a Queen, and worshiped by the very creatures that she despises. Set atop a throne of thorns, she feels all is lost, until a stranger with human eyes and a sorted past is shackled at her feet.

Though worlds apart, both girls must race against time if they hope to unravel the mysteries of the Fae folk and unmask The Raven Queen.

Book Review:

Forests of the Fae: The Raven Queen did not disappoint! It was full of adventure and mystery. My favorite part about Kibbee's writing is how she can create this intense thrill in her novels which I think is awesome since Forests of the Fae: The Raven Queen in a YA novel. It's hard to find a great intense book which is suitable for young audiences. I read the first book of the Forests of the Fae, and I loved it and I'm so happy I had the opportunity to read The Raven Queen. This author sure can bang out a quality and intriguing book. Overall I give Forests of the Fae: The Raven Queen five stars!
