For hedge dragon, Storm, life is hard in Forgotten World, home of the Dragons, and as an abomination according to the Trueblood’s, Storm and other hedge dragons deserved to die. But Storm is determined to survive and when her sister is sold into slavery to a rakshasa, she vows to rescue her sister no matter the costs. Leaving her home, traveling to Owlanvine, a dark and deadly city in Wildmoone is more than she even thinks. When Storm finds herself getting help from the Lord of the Hunt and his Lady, she finds herself with a small band of warriors, each with skills that will help in her quest to free Shellsong. But in the process, Storm will find that friends can come in the most unusual places and that not all are out to kill a hedge dragon.
THE POISONED FOREST is a wild ride from start to finish and one book that continues the Wild Hunt series in a new way with a new cast of characters that really had me intrigued right from the start. We met Storm in Antlered Crown (final book in the Wild Hunt series) and I was thrilled to find out more about this character and about the hedge dragons themselves. The author delves into the worlds around the Wild Hunt in more detail and I found it fascinating to find out more about these worlds/lands and all who live there. For me, THE POISONED FOREST is more than a spin-off of the Wild Hunt series but more of a continuation that explores other areas that series didn’t get into and the characters there we were introduced in this new book kept me intrigued as well as entertained till the very end.
Storm is a character that is very guarded and not to trusting due to her kind being hunted and more in the Forgotten World. I loved finding out more about her and the dragons as well as a few other characters that pop up as well. This author has a knack at creating wild and unique characters that keep you glued to the pages till the very end. The world building is wonderful, and I love that the author gave us a map of how these worlds are connected. It helped me keep track at where Storm and the gang moved along into as the story commenced and went onward. What amazes me is how Ms. Galenorn keeps it fresh and enjoyable in this spinoff. Sometimes I get disappointed if there is a sequel/spinoff but not wit this first book in the Hedge Dragon series. I like how this author is creating a new ‘Wild Hunt’ that will take on a different job(s) than as when Ember joined the group so many books ago. What pleases me is that I can recommend this book even if you haven’t read the Wild Hunt Series though I do highly recommend you read it first then this one as it all ties in eventually.
THE POISONED FOREST gets the new series off on a run and it’s a story that had me captivated till the very end. If you enjoy unique characters, a world that is so vast that the surprises just keep coming and story that twists and turns, then grab THE POISONED FOREST and settle in for one wild adventure. Now I can not wait for book two to get here.
