I liked this, though not as much of the first book. I didn't think that Silver's characterisation quite meshed with what had previously been established of him and the conflict between him and Tobias wasn't dealt with deftly enough. Also, for a novel about Green Men: not enough woods. Enjoyable, but I don't think it will linger in my memory. I enjoyed the continuation of the world that Tesh created more than I did the story, this time around. The something that has led to a coldness between the main characters is left unspecified for far too long. I found myself wondering, "Did I forget something important from the prior book?" That said, if I find that the story haunts my wondering thoughts (and it might), I'll probably come back and revise my rating to 4 stars. More strange and somewhat adorable sylvan fun from Silver and Toby. I was truly blown away by Silver in the Wood with its wonder and emotional depth, so I felt a little disappointed with the first half of this novella. There are wonderful ideas and subversions of fantasy and folklore tropes, but it seems there was a little something missing. This emotional depth I had been missing really came back strongly with the second half, which I enjoyed a lot more. It wraps up the duoloy wonderfully. If you liked Silver in the Wood, then you should absolutely read this, and if you haven't read that book GO DO IT RIGHT NOW! aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Even the Wild Man of Greenhollow can't ignore a summons from his mother, when that mother is the indomitable Adela Silver, practical folklorist. Henry Silver does not relish what he'll find in the grimy seaside town of Rothport, where once the ancient wood extended before it was drowned beneath the sea--a missing girl, a monster on the loose, or, worst of all, Tobias Finch, who loves him. In this stunning sequel to Silver in the Wood, Emily Tesh once again invites readers to lose themselves in the story of Henry and Tobias, and the magic of a myth they've always known.
