What Feasts at Night

(Bre)anne✨

“May we always have the choice to err on the side of mercy,” I said, lifting my wine.

Alex Easton, retired soldier, returns in this novella-length sequel to the bestselling What Moves The Dead. When Easton travels to Gallacia as a favor to Miss Potter, they find their home empty, the caretaker dead, and the grounds troubled by a strange, uncanny silence. The locals whisper of a strange breath-stealing being from Gallacian folklore that has taken up residence in Easton’s home . . . and in their dreams.

If someone ever send me to investigate a haunting hunting lodge, please make sure to get Alex Easton as my partner

More squishy horror from Kingfisher. It’s not like regular horror, and it’s not like horror without the gore, it’s a different kind of horror, like, horror for drinking tea. Sweater-horror. Cottage Corror. Anyways it’s a sequel and it’s lovely and kind of gross but also, I’ll probably read it again in October for vibes.

I love how these books are welll-paced, witty, with fun dialogues and inner monologues, and not to long.

Amidst the fun banter T Kingfisher knows how to build tension and suspense and keeps you on the edge on what will happen next to whom. 

Great for fans of Horror, Fantasy, and general oddities.

Is cozy horror a thing? More spooky folklore than gothic horror this time, but I enjoyed this second adventure with Easton and the gang!

As always, a pleasure to spend time with Alex Easton; this was more fairy-tale than horror (tl;dr, the folktale is real), and Kingfisher continues to be the only horror author I can cope with.

You can always rely on T. Kingfisher to give you a cosy creepy story. The cast of characters is colourful as ever.

I felt that the parallels between Alex's own (what is clearly) PTSD and the moroi. It was a clever and direct reference to a long history of explaining mental illness / struggles through folklore and help introduce an element of uncertainty whether the spirit was also torturing Alex or it was their own mental health.

An entertaining read with great humor, lightly brushed heavy topics and the slightest sprinkle of creepiness.
