'A charmingly whimsical delight. . . Five dazzling, gladdening stars' India Holton, author of The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels
The third instalment in the enchanting light academia Emily Wilde books, about a curmudgeonly scholar of folklore and the fae prince she loves, from Sunday Times bestselling author Heather Fawcett.
Emily Wilde has spent her life studying faeries. A renowned dryadologist, she has documented hundreds of species of Folk in her Encyclopaedia of Faeries. Now she is about to embark on her most dangerous academic project yet: studying the inner workings of a faerie realm-as its queen.
Along with her former academic rival-now fiancé-the dashing and mercurial Wendell Bambleby, Emily is immediately thrust into the deadly intrigues of Faerie as the two of them seize the throne of Wendell's long-lost kingdom, which Emily finds a beautiful nightmare, filled with scholarly treasures.
Emily has been obsessed with faerie stories her entire life, but at first she feels as ill-suited to Faerie as she did to the mortal world-how could an unassuming scholar like herself pass for a queen? Yet there is little time to settle in-Wendell's murderous stepmother has placed a deadly curse upon the land before vanishing without a trace. It will take all of Wendell's magic-and Emily's knowledge of stories-to unravel the mystery before they lose everything they hold dear.
Praise for the Emily Wilde books:
'Forget dark academia: give me instead this kind of winter-sunshined, sharp-tongued and footnoted academia, full of field trips and grumpy romance' Freya Marske, author of A Marvellous Light
'A darkly gorgeous fantasy that sparkles with snow and magic, this book wholly enchanted me' Sangu Mandanna, author of The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches
'A thoroughly charming academic fairy tale, complete with footnotes and a low-key grumpy romance' Guardian
'Enchanting in every sense of the word. . . This book is real magic' H. G. Parry, author of The Magician's Daughter
'A book so vividly, endlessly enchanting, so crisply assured, so rich and complete and wise and far-reaching in its worldbuilding that you'll walk away half ensorcelled, sure Fawcett found Emily Wilde's journal in some sea-stained trunk' Melissa Albert
'The ideal book to curl up with on a chilly winter's evening. . . this book is an absolute delight.' Megan Bannen, author of The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy
'I enjoyed every word of this gorgeously written fairy tale featuring a grumpy heroine and an utterly charming love interest' Isabel Ibañez, author of Woven In Moonlight

A whimsical fairytale
I've read the last book of the Emily Wilde series in one sitting. They actually did it! After a long search Emily and Wendell are finally able to steal back his throne. But the old queen has cursed the kingdom and once again it's up to Emily to find a way to save it. I loved this series so much. I really wanted to take my time with the last book simply because I didn't want to say goodbye...but than it was way to tempting so I had to read it in one sitting. In this book Emily is confronted with new challenges, some of them forcing her out of her confort zone. Wendell tries to be understanding and helpful but sometimes Emily has to do what she needs to do in her own way. We get some really nice links to the two previous books and in my oppinion an ending that completes the series perfectly. -

Can one socially awkward Professor turned Fairy Queen save the day once again?
Returning to Emily’s world was as natural as coming home to one’s family and friends. Characters new and old appear in the final stretch of securing Wendell’s kingdom once and for all, creating the most lovely and whimsical fairy tale inspired ending to this trilogy. I really enjoyed the journey in this book, it really reflected a bunch of fairy tale tropes, combined with our socially-awkward heroine, who somehow always knows how to solve even the strangest most unforeseen circumstances. I am quite sad this series is over, but it is definitely one of those heartwarming adventure stories that reminds you of all the fairy tales you used to read as a child. Highly recommend! -

Fairy tale for adults
I adore Hearther Fawcett's way to write. It feels like a fairy tale for adults and is the perfect slow palette cleanser. The book feels cosy, without being boring and everyone is just so charming. I'll always have the best time, getting lost in Emily Wildes World. A wholesome ending and I'm both happy and sad to have to part with it. -

Emily Wilde's Compendium of Lost Tales
I sadly didn't like this third installment as much as the other two, but Emily and Wendell still managed bewitch me. I liked the new atmosphere of the kingdom in faerie, but the inter-personal relationships didn't catch me as much this time around. I'd still recommend reading this and if there will ever be a fourth one, I'm gonna be the first to buy it <3
