Outstanding. This book made me smile so much, everything about it is perfect. Lyrical, cozy, marvelous, mysterious, magical, humorous, and cute. This is one I already wish I could read again for the first time. I enjoyed it more than the first book, which I loved, but I think it’s because I like Silver’s POV better. Read both, you will not regret it.

Second Story in the Greenhollow Duology Carries on the Magic. “The Drowned Country” begins approximately two years after the events of “Silver in the Wood” and features the same characters. However, these characters roles have been reversed. Henry Silver, a folklorist, has become the Man of Greenhollow Wood. Tobias Finch, now released from this role after centuries, has once again become a mortal man. He now aids Henry’s mother in her supernatural investigations. Henry has been called on to help his mother and Tobias in a dangerous case. In the seaside town of Rockport, a teenage girl may have been abducted by a powerful and ancient supernatural being. There are the ruins of an old church there that may be the lair of this monster. Who knows what they will find in the crypts beneath this ruin? “The Drowned Country” begins with the backdrop of relationship problems that had developed over the two intervening years. This made me sad. The reasons for these seemed both petty, and serious. There are significant problems when one partner becomes a potentially immortal supernatural being. These are shown in flashbacks as the main story of the missing girl unfolds. Eventually, the two stories converge into the present. This story is surprising and not what one would expect. Like “Silver in the Wood” it is both lyrical and atmospheric. The characters have modern sensibilities, and the alternate world of gaslights and steam trains is both like ours, and yet more rich with wonder. I’m sorry that this is called the Greenhollow Duology instead of a series, as the setting and the characters are so enjoyable. However, it is absolutely worth reading.
