Januaries by Olivie Blake – Book Review

2 November 2024 by Dee Young Leave a Comment

Januaries by Olivie Blake is a collection of stories of both love and betrayal.

They include a spirit, tethered to a magical bridge, who is rapidly approaching burnout and craves her freedom.

Elsewhere, Congress enacts a complex auditing system designed to un-waste your youth.

One narrative follows a banished fairy, as she answers a Craigslist ad.

Another tells of a Victorian orphan, who gains literacy for her occult situationship.

And, in another time and place, a multiverse assassin contemplates the one who got away!

Olivie’s intricately crafted collection also features modified fairy tales, present-day heists, absurdist poetry and at least one set of actual wedding vows.

Once again this extremely talented author has woven intricate webs of magical threads to mystify and blow the minds of her devoted followers.

Her other-worldly mindset takes the reader into situations/scenarios that could never have been imagined, even in their wildest dreams!

An amazing must-read for lovers of the extraordinary!

ISBN: 9781035039586
Publisher: Pan Macmillan Australia

Januaries is available in paperback
