Description
New York Times best-selling October Daye faerie series
Hugo Award-winning author Seanan McGuire
Things are slow, and October "Toby" Daye couldn't be happier about that. The elf-shot cure has been approved, Arden Windermere is settling into her position as Queen in the Mists, and Toby doesn't have anything demanding her attention except for wedding planning and spending time with her family.
Maybe she should have realized that it was too good to last.
When Toby's mother, Amandine, appears on her doorstep with a demand for help, refusing her seems like the right thing to do...until Amandine starts taking hostages, and everything changes. Now, Toby doesn't have a choice about whether or not she does as her mother asks. Not with Jazz and Tybalt's lives hanging in the balance. But who could possibly help her find a pureblood she's never met, one who's been missing for over 100 years?
Enter Simon Torquill, elf-shot enemy turned awakened, uneasy ally. Together, the two of them must try to solve one of the greatest mysteries in the Mists: what happened to Amandine's oldest daughter, August, who disappeared in 1906.
This is one missing person case Toby can't afford to get wrong.

Mother From Hell and the Start of a Redemption
As always, an outstanding book from one of my favorite authors. This one is heavy with character development for Amandine and Simon.
The more I learn about Amandine, the more violence I want to do to her. It was bad enough in the earlier books when she was presented as a neglectful mother, who blamed October for the loss of her human husband and didn't bat an eye when October ran away to live on the streets with other Changelings. But in this book Amandine is even more emotionally abusive, cruel and capricious.
Simon on the other hand, who was originally presented as a basic ''bad guy'' who we didn't have a lot of info on, is really fleshed out in this book. We learned a few books ago that he was trying to ''save'' October by turning her into a fish but I really got to like Simon in this book and felt sorry for him at times. The Road to Hell and all that.
The ending made me tear up and I hope Simon is able to complete his redemption by the end of this series.
We also get to see Pixies, and that a good turn is never forgotten.
I still love Mary Robinette Kowal as a narrator, her accents are the reason why I listen instead of read this series!

Poorest book yet in this series
Rehash of past adventures to ultimately add one new character, change an old character back into a villain and mostly to allow an author to present a rather uninteresting story. Skip this book while hoping for a better story next time.

OMG
Well I enjoy the story. Nice twists and turns. But can we stop with the useless monologue bringing up past books. For the love of God listening for 3 minutes while she talks about the previous walk on the road to Babylon is old. Also she has the ability to change her blood she's done it in the past, but in this book she doesn't know if she can without a hope chest. I'm what, 10 books in, I keep expecting the long explanations to end. Give the damn story and solidify what she can do with the magic we know she has already. Give us something new in the next book.

Awful narrator!
This narrator is awful. Her voice for Tybalt is the worst. I wasted a credit.

Wow!
The narrator is awesome giving different speech patterns and voices to the various characters. And reflects the emotion within the story as well. it's really a joy to listen to. it's hard to turn it off because I need to do other things.

...in limbo
I enjoy the October Daye series, and was delighted when I discovered the 11th book.
To me the ending too unfinished. I don't want to series to end but this 11th book left me hanging too much..

Love the series!
Any additional comments?
I love the October Daye series but I was disappointed in this book. I had a hard time getting into the story and hate the Amandine character. I realize I'm probably supposed to but find her whiney and petulant on top of being hateful. I'm hoping the author does not dwell on her in the future. When I re-listen to the series I will be skipping this one.

The Bigotry of the Fae
Ugh... the bigotry of the Fae 🙄 Toby is always kicking ass... and wow, Toby's mom is a piece of work. Not sure why after only a chapter, I shelved this and forgot about all the Fae magic and wonder of San Francisco... for a year and a half! Crazy, right?

Why doesn't she just go fey all the way? Then no one could do these things to her anymore!
