This was the Toby Daye book I've been waiting for since I started reading Rosemary and Rue. Toby is assertive and forward, as usual, but this time it seems less like she's being that was in reaction to things. She charts her own course, has to come to her answers on her own and as a result winds up ...

Before the first book, October was turned into a fish for trying to rescue Luna and Rosalyn from the clutches of Simon and Oleander. But now, Oleander is back. A master illusionist and poisoner and a brilliant assassin, she is hunting October and those she loves.As people she loves and values are br...

October Daye reminds me of that friend whom I liked a great deal, but who was a disaster waiting to happen. Make a shopping date, and she'd show up 45 minutes late and then discover she lost her credit card at the first store. We'd have some commotion looking for it, involve two or three innocent by...

I'm listening to the audiobook. I also have the paperback. Another sad one with a semi-HEA. Too many people are after Toby for her to let her guard down and think everything will turn out wonderful.

Thoroughly, completely loved this book. It's probably my favorite Toby tale so far (and that includes the new one) - and believe me, picking a fave is difficult in a series this good! Toby has really grown and changed since the first book, and what's more, she's done it in a believable way. Can't be...

Rating: ★★★★½Another suspenseful and action packed novel by Seanan McGuire. October (Toby) Daye is back as the changeling knight who always seems to find more trouble than normal. In this novel, an old foe returns and preys upon Toby’s friends. The plot was a wild ride until the end. Toby’s “rela...

I love Toby Daye--she's definitely up there with my other favorite kick-ass heroines: Joanne (Walker), Mercy (Thompson), Jane (Yellowrock), and Gin (Blanco). Why? Well, she's snarky. She kicks ass. And she does everything she can for all the right reasons, even if it's unappreciated.Toby barely made...

I mostly enjoyed it.I'm still not sure what we're supposed to see in Connor. I get that October likes him because of prior history but as a reader I don't find him particularly interesting. I think McGuire needed to lay more groundwork for the crazy changeling because as soon as October started havi...

**Synopsis** In October "Toby" Daye's fourth outing, following 2010's An Artificial Night, the half-Fae, half-human private detective/knight errant is once again run through the wringer when problems plaguing the San Francisco Fae community strike home on a personal level. After a shocking announcem...

Ok. So I think we all know right that I have a special spot in my reader's heart for Toby and Tybalt, Spike & the Luidaeg, May & Lily. However, Toby was a bit prickly in this book, perhaps as a contract to May, and was bordering on unlikeable for good portions of this book.While there was a lot of T...
