K.J. Charles's Reviews > Summer in Orcus

In which I continue my T Kingfisher binge. What a lovely story. Classic portal fantasy where a child goes to another world, with a number of the kind of twists in perspective at which Kingfisher excels, including the skills by which Summer saves the day. Absurd and fantastical and wildly imaginative. Author apparently wrote this as a prophylactic against the real-world awfulness of 2016, and it pretty much works.
