The Last Stitch

The Chronicles of Eirie seriesbook 2 of 4Next:A Thousand Glass Flowers(2011) →

A story that is the dark side of the Fey, a side that gives a new meaning to the word fairytale, The Last Stitch takes Adelina the Travellers narration to its climax at a terrifying masked ball in the secretive mirror-world of Veniche. It is a story of revenge, of friendships lost, of love and the cruel machinations of enchanted Others who weave in and out of mortal lives like a needle through fabric. Considered to be a cross between Neil Gaimans Stardust and John Crowleys Little Big, this is Book Two in the highly regarded and unusual historical fantasy series THE CHRONICLES OF EIRIE.
