WIJFR: The Bloodletter's Daughter and A Night of Cake and Puppets (NS)
Hi All! I just finished two completely different books that just happened to take place (most for one, some for the other) in the same location -- Cesky Krumlov.
The Bloodletter's Daughter by Linda Lafferty was a Kindle monthly deal in May. It's historical fiction, about Rudolph II's insane bastard son. The book was super interesting, and made me more interested in the history of the Czech Republic. I'd recommend it to anyone already interested in historical fiction.
The next book I picked up was A Night of Cake and Puppets by Laini Taylor -- only to find that Zuzanna grew up in Cesky Krumlov -- in the shadows of the castle that was the setting for most of the Bloodletter's Daughter. Such a coincidence. I loved this one. So good. Although I generally dislike novellas, this one was very well done and told a complete story within the larger story, and it helps that I absolutely loved the DOSAB trilogy.
