Sylvae

Selected comments from readers of Sylvae.

β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…

β€œA beautiful and cruel love story, wrapped in a mythology that feels far older than the characters themselves. By the end, the lake has become a character in its own right.”

β€” Valentina Mas

β€œWalking through the forests of Poland, I can almost imagine myself wandering through one of the forests in Sylvae.”

β€” MarΓ­a del Mar Luna

β€œRufus won me over precisely because he’s so far from being the perfect hero. He makes mistakes, longs for what he ought to fear, and keeps going when any sensible person would have run.”

β€” Elena Ionescu

β€œThe relationship between Rufus and Sylvae has the kind of beauty that makes you sense the tragedy long before you know what form it will take.”

β€” JosΓ© A. Mas

β€œThere are echoes of old European tales, from a time when fairies were still creatures to be feared. The mythology of the Guardians, the true names, and the memories trapped in the water give the novel an identity all its own.”

β€” Astrid Lindberg

β€œI came for Sylvae. I stayed for Rufus, Galen, Mira, Sarya, Peter, and Colette.”

β€” Elise De Smet

β€œI thought it was going to be a fairly traditional fantasy story, but I was surprised by how attached I became to the characters. I felt so sorry for Colette, and Peter made me laugh more than once. By the end, I wanted to know what was going to happen to all of them, not just Rufus and Sylvae.”

β€œI’ve just finished it, and now I’m dying to know what happens next. I need the sequel.”

β€” Ana Villena

β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…

β€œSylvae begins as a fantasy of forests, legends, and faerie creatures, but gradually becomes something much darker. Some love stories should remain buried. But they don’t. And that makes them infinitely more beautiful.”

β€” Giulia Moretti

β€œThere are moments when you want to tell Rufus to run and forget all about Sylvae. The trouble is, you understand perfectly well why he keeps going back.”

β€” Fran Benitez
