Lord of the Heights: A Wuthering Heights Fae Romantasy
The movie shows you the madness. This book reveals the magic.
Catherine Earnshaw has a secret. The moors of Wuthering Heights aren’t just windswept hills; they are a prison for ancient spirits, and she is their warden. To save her world, she married the human Edgar Linton, locking away her magic in a golden cage of silk and society.
She thought she had saved them. She was wrong.
Heathcliff has returned as a Lord of Shadows, armed with dark arcane power and a thirst for vengeance that threatens to tear the veil between worlds. He has come to collect on the blood oath they swore under a red moon.
“I did not break your heart, Catherine. We broke the world when we tried to deny what we are.”
This is Wuthering Heights as a scorched-earth Dark Romantasy where the villains are the heroes, the romance is toxic, and the magic is as deadly as the moors.

Dark Fey Gothic
Well, the plot is not Pride and Prejudice and Zombies, and the fey side is not a Disney-sweet version. It’s a complete re-image of Emily Brontë’s classic Wuthering Heights, with the same storyline, the same characters, and the same Gothic manor high on the moors. (And the weather! Talk about Pathetic Fallacy!) All that’s changed is, instead of a psychological study of passion, jealousy, obsession and revenge, it’s a tale of earth magic and the Twilight Court (with, of course, generous servings of passion, jealousy, obsession and revenge.) The manor house itself, which defines our Gothic genre, is a border between the two worlds, and Cathy and Heathcliff are its crossing guards.
I love the prologue, with its elements of The Rocky Horror Picture Show and its manor sharing attributes with Doctor Who’s TARDIS. But the story soon shifts time and grows darker, slipping from what I thought would be a lighter-hearted reimagining of Wuthering Heights to a dark pastiche worthy of the somewhat creepy Brontë family*. And true to its muse, it stays dark. In style the writing alternates between Horace Walpole’s horror and Ann Radcliffe’s sweet romance, with language appropriate to its 18th Century setting. (But no inscrutable dialects.)
I found it difficult to empathize with (read “like”) any of the characters, except perhaps the main narrator, Nelly Dean, Catherine’s maid/nurse/companion. And even she is dark, not comic relief like Romeo and Juliet’s nurse. Her position in the household (oops, manorhold) is never explained. At the start of the story, Catherine is 6 years old and Nelly is 14, so probably not her nurse from birth. But unlike a servant she does get around – maybe she’s a poor relative, part of the family? In the original story Nelly is described as being afflicted by envy and class disparity, which is entirely absent from this version. Nelly is the one truly loving and empathetic member of either the Earnshaw or the Linton families, sufficiently fey herself that she can witness the supernatural events, and as protective as possible to all the downtrodden and even the downtreading folk she lives with.
I’m always bemused by stories where an underprivileged, degraded protagonist runs away from home with just the clothes on their back, and returns a few years later with a million dollars and a Ph.D. from Stanford (so to speak). This is a fairly common literary trope – England’s Dick Whittington, for example, or the generic American Dream. For me, pragmatist that I am, that requires even more of a suspension of disbelief than any fey component. But once again, Heathcliff manages it.
I have never been able to finish the original Wuthering Heights, but after reading Ms. Thorne’s interpretation, I think it’s time to go back and try again.
I have been given an advance copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review. For this I thank Ms. Thorne.

Review of advance copy
Lord of the Heights
By
Scarlett J Thorne
Most readers are familiar with Emily Bronte’s great masterpiece Wuthering Heights with its characters of storm and calm, its loves and hates, and its study of cosmic betrayal and redemption.
Ms Thorne has kept the locales, characters and the general plot development of the original but has made one tremendous addition. The cosmos of her novel includes the spiritual world of the Fae as well as the physical world of the senses. Whereas the latter works through the physical senses, rationality, and causation manifesting through physical laws, in the world of the Fae time is fluid. Spiritual laws which use concepts such as blood oaths create unbreakable bonds; there are visions of ethereal landscapes in which strange entities and forces—such as the Twilight Court— operate.
Normally these two worlds operate on separate planes but in this world of this novel there are certain times when the physical world and the Fae intersect. Quite early on we discover that Wuthering Heights is a locus point or portal where such an intersection occurs and where a bargain with the Fae has been made. Further, some characters are able to relate to and experience both worlds. All this means that crucial decisions and actions by the characters must somehow conform to both the physical and the spiritual ethos. This does not always happen and cosmic disfunction occurs which has serious repercussions on personal, social and ethical levels.
The expanded universe effects other aspects of the novel. The settings are wilder and more fierce. The manor of Wuthering Heights itself is almost a character in the book reflecting the nature of its inhabitants and their personalities.
While the characters of the book are identical to those in the original novel here they take on their own special identities and the superb vivid writing of Scarlett J Thorne makes the entire experience of this literary reimagined novel a must read for lovers of fantasy.

Catherine has a full-time unpaid job keeping an ancient fae prison from leaking out of the moors. Her solution is to marry a nice, non-magical man and pretend she is normal. It does not work, because her ex-boyfriend returns after three years having been promoted from stable boy to Lord of Shadows with dark magic and revenge issues, and he is here to collect on a blood oath they made under a red moon.
I went into this story excited, sadly I was massively let down, both as a lover of Wuthering Heights and of Fae fantasy.
You can definitely see the blue print of Wuthering Heights but there were some deviations taken I found… an interesting creative choice. The fae aspect was entirely lost on me. It’s said they are fae but this to me was a straight ghost paranormal story.
What does Heathcliff become? It’s said he’s not human nor fully fae but something else altogether but it’s never explained what he is.
The Cathy, Linton, Hareton part of the story really got me. This all knowing savior type role Cathy played just didn’t do it for me. Not to mention the entire dynamic of these three was not it.
The writing was ok but often repetitive which made certain parts drag.

July 31, 2026I enjoyed reading this but in the end it could have used more editing. The writing captured the feel of the prose of Wuthering Heights and other pieces from that period, without feeling archaic or awkward, and I enjoyed the vivid imagery. The fae interpretation of the characters and their relationship was well done; I think this idea was inspired. Some of the character turns and motivations seem unrealistically extreme to me, but hey, this is Wuthering Heights after all.
My main complaint was that the book could have used more rigorous editing, especially in the second half. There was a fair amount of repetition, and the repetitions didn't always match. There were also multiple times where something key was mentioned as if the reader should understand it even though it is not introduced for anther chapter or two, and where one chapter seems to contradict what was just shown in the preceding chapter. None of this ruins the story or the emotional impact but it took me out of immersion and made the reading more of a slog.

Review of advance copy received from Author
Okay - so I walked into this book - without having read the Wuthering Heights real human story. But from what I have read, and heard in podcasts it seems that it was pretty twisted - and no romantic just two people tearing down each other and everyone else around them - and overall a real mood killer :)
Mr. Lockheart is taken back in time, to Wuthering Heights which exists out of time - and we are told the story of Catherine and Heathcliff from Nelly, Catherine's nanny/maid since birth.
Very gothic story, we have fae, we have whatever Heathcliff is- family (a father he seemed to care for Heathcliff a waif he "adopted" - and a brother and mother that hated Heathcliff.)
In the end, I guess it was the happiest we could hope for - Catherine and Heathcliff are reunited in whatever fae world they dropped into, and Cathy and marries her cousin - although they are first cousins and frankly that is a little weird -but hey the royals all intermarried their first cousins - :)

prepare to ugly cry
4.5 stars. I loved this story so much, I thought it was excellent. It kept close to the original story and the themes it encompasses. I’m still and always will be 100% a Catherine and Healthcliff shipper. Expect it to still be a tragedy but I liked that this author chose to see what would happen if redemption was allowed to happen as well.
Like the original, it forces you to witness all the messiness and complications that come from human choice and circumstances beyond control. Asks how far a person will go for love, what happens when grief and vengeance are overwhelming and what are the damages born from societal constraints. So, so good and deeply emotional. It def made me ugly cry many times.
Minor critique: fae aspects were left somewhat ambiguous, bargains and the bloodline history of magic could have been more fleshed out. Barring that, I loved it and highly recommend it.

The Lord of the Heights by Scarlett J. Thorne is one of the best books I've read this year. This riveting dark fantasy, with elements of horror, had me completely captivated from beginning to end.
Thorne has beautifully reimagined Wuthering Heights, remaining true to the heart of the original while creating something wonderfully dark and haunting. The windswept moors become a mysterious border between our world and the realm of the fae, resulting in a chilling, atmospheric adventure that kept me enthralled.
At its heart, this is a story about the fragile boundary between worlds and the extraordinary power of love to endure against impossible odds. The gothic atmosphere is superb, the plot enthralling, and the love story deeply compelling.
I absolutely loved this book and wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone who enjoys rich, atmospheric gothic fantasy with a dark, chilling edge. A truly memorable read.

I have to start this review off by saying that Wuthering Heights, by Charlotte Brontë, is one of my all-time favorite books. That being said, I truly loved this adaptation. As an avid Fantasy reader, I cannot imagine anything better than one of the classics I grew up on being rewritten into something that not only resembles the original but also adds magic. The writing was exceptionally well done in this case because the darkness of the original has been explained here through fae, human bloodlines, other worlds, and a house that is most definitely sentient.
If you love dark romance, Faustian deals, morally grey MMC’s, emotional damage, and a really well-narrated fairy tale that verges on a tragic love story, this is a wonderful book for you.
I received this ARC from Book Sirens; all opinions shared are my own and given freely.

I received a free advance copy in exchange for an honest review. If you enjoy reading horror stories - this book is worth your time. Except for the final chapter/post-logue, the book is dark. It is written pretty true to the style of english literature of the 1800s (reminded me of charles dickens' writing style). Additionally, as this book is in the past, the houses, people are true to the time period. There are a lot of supernatural elements (fairy rings, supernatural storms, etc) however, all characters (human or supernatural) are portrayed with very human emotions and feelings, and though all emotions are predominantly dark and pessimistic, the characters reactions and interactions are believable.
Review of advance copy
Although i do not regularly enjoy reading love stories, i read this dark mysterious retelling of Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights without pause.
The author tells a fluid tale with beautiful wording (reminded me vaguely of H.P.Lovecraft).
It even got me interested in reading the original -which i had to look up in wikipedia to get basic info- .
Since i do not know much about dark romance/drama -see first line ;) i only can give 4 stars, otherwise it would probably be 5 stars.

Really Enjoyable read. Said to be a spinoff of the original Wuthering Heights Book & Film. It's been so long since I saw the film, that It is difficult to comment on that.
Great slow paced writing. I don't THINK that the original had this much paranormal. Really held my interest. My only criticism would be that after the first Catherine's death, it seemed like the author partially lost interest, & didn't put as much of herself into the writing.
That said, this was very enjoyable & different (classic goth style) then what I usually read.

Review of advance copy received from NetGalley
Lord of the Heights just was not the book for me. Having some recollection of the original Wuthering Heighgs story, I decided to take this one on thinking it would be a fun twist on a classic with some fairies and some romance. Sadly, this one missed the mark for me. The story was thin and repetitive. I made myself finish it, hoping I would be satisfied in the end. However, all I felt was relieved that it was finally over and I can move on. I expected some romance, which there was very little of, as well as some fae fantasy, which was also very dilute. Perhaps a rewrite of classic prose just isn’t my genre.
Review of advance copy received from NetGalley
What a refreshingly unique romantasy. This had just enough Withering Heights in it for fans of that book but had enough new ideas and story that someone who had never read WH would still love it. I think the way the far more is built and integrated into the story was wonderfully done and added to the already interesting storytelling. I loved the characters and the the way that learn their personalities and why they change throughout the book. I highly recommend this book (to the extent that I was recommending it to my bookish friends before I even finished it.
The narrators were great and added so much to the story with their acting.

I ate up the dark and gothic vibes of this so fast. I felt truly immersed and curious the whole time, even knowing it followed the outline of Wuthering Heights.
Carrying that well-loved tome through a supernatural world of fae and fairy rings seemed so crazy to me but it was actually executed really well. It held true to the classic literature's style while still carrying a unique adaptation on its own.
Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC!

Full of gothic vibes, mystery, suspense, and a bit of a gothic horror thrown in, it was a fun read and different take on the old classic Wuthering Heights. The characters were amazing, the story intriguing and what drew me in and kept me reading to watch it all play out. Really had to see what became of Catherine and Heathcliff. And the addition of James was fun and really had to see what he was really doing in this story. I liked the upgrades and choices and the characters.
Review of advance copy received from NetGalley
If you've ever wondered what Wuthering Heights would be like with the fae, Lord of the Heights is a beautifully atmospheric retelling that stays true to the heart of the original.
The moors become a border world with the fae, Catherine carries fae ancestry, and Heathcliff is reimagined as a fae child brought home from the other side. These changes add a fascinating new dimension to his darkness and the fierce, all-consuming bond between him and Catherine.
While remaining faithful to the story we know, this retelling enriches the gothic atmosphere with magic, mystery, and just enough wonder to make this classic feel entirely new.

This book will grab you from the very first page. It is full of so many twists and turns, unexpected surprises, and so much more that won’t let you go. These characters are full of compassion and empathy which created a stunning and captivating story. I loved all the magical moments.

This was an interesting retelling of Wuthering Heights. Fans of The Outlander would love this. It's a beautiful story about love and redemption. Truly beautiful. I'd say Wuthering heights meets fae meets outlander.

This was an interesting, and surprisingly dark retelling of Wuthering Heights!
Whilst the characters names remained the same, I felt that they were worlds apart from how they were originally written. This helped make the Fae elements of the story believable and to assist with the credibility of the characters too.
I enjoyed the fact that the manor house almost became a character in itself, and that there was a HEA unlike the original story!
Overall, 4 stars.

Really solid dark far retelling of Wuthering Heights. Can’t compare it to the original (yet), but I enjoyed it. Very atmospheric.
Review of advance copy received from Edelweiss+
The fact that it was essentially a faithful adaptation of *Wuthering Heights*, with the addition of fairies, probably didn’t help this book’s appeal for me, because I don’t think Brontë wrote a good book, let alone created compelling characters; that said, I would therefore recommend it only to those who consider themselves big fans of the original novel.
Probabilmente il fatto che fosse una rilettura quasi esatta di Cime tempestose, soltanto con l'aggiunta delle fate, non ha contribuito al successo di questo libro nel mio caso, perché io non credo che la Bronte abbia scritto un bel libro e tanto meno dei bei personaggi; detto questo, lo consiglierei quindi, soltanto a chi si ritiene un grande fan del romanzo originale.
