This novel is, to be frank, completely enchanting. A cross between myth, fairy tale and science fiction, ''The Gracekeepers'' is an entirely original tale. Mentions of [[:Category:Margaret Atwood|Margaret Atwood]] and [[:Category:Angela Carter|Angela Carter]] are deserved, given that ''The Gracekeepers'' does, much like many of Atwood’s novels, include women surviving in a speculative future, and tells a tale that feels as old as time, whilst giving it a modern, female driven viewpoint - a la [[:Category:Angela Carter|Angela Carter]]. This should not take away from the fact that ''The Gracekeepers'' is a wholly original and entirely compelling novel, and only owes a small debt to such luminaries – Kirsty Logan has crafted something original and truly wonderful. Special mention must go to the cover too – a beautiful, tactile book. A marvellous read, I’ll heartily be recommending this novel – and I would encourage it to anyone who wishes to be swept away, enchanted, and left stunned on the dark shore of ''The Gracekeepers''
For further reading I would suggest [[The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern]]. Wholly enchanting and with wonderfully rich prose, it’s a rich read with intelligent characters, an intriguing plot, and a story that lingers long after the final pages have been turned .
