Similarly to the other collections this series has, it’s let down by the extracts of longer poems and stories.
Personally if this was a collection of shorter poems it would work better for my reading experience as I can get all the context held in the writing then rather than wonder what is actually going on.
For example, it’s a good thing I knew what The Tempest is about and remembered some of the characters otherwise the extract of that in particular feels very out of context as you know something has happened to someone… but not what or who.
However I would say this works as an autumnal read with the nights creeping in and the shadows feeling a bit more mysterious and encroaching.
