Why do people protect the predators and blame survivors for calumny? The answer is never as simple, but the logic behind it Why do people believe that sexual trauma convicting sexual predators is a "steep price to pay for 20 minutes of action?" " Do you have anything to gain by coming here? Has anybody promised you anything for coming forth with this story now?" - Sen. Also, luckily for me, she is writing a spin-off to "The Raven Cycle," (it has a different Tumblr tag) which I couldn't be happier about. At the time, I was hoping that the novel was going to be a continuation or spin-off of "The Raven Cycle," because I figured that 'dark novel' was an accurate descriptor of a book related to the series, but I was equally excited when I found out that it was a stand-alone novel because, historically, I have adored her standalone novels. I follow her on Tumblr, and I noticed when she started tagging interesting photos as 'dark novel.' These pictures tended to be pictures of owls (my favorite bird/animal!) or derelict looking places in the desert. I looked forward to "All the Crooked Saints" for a very long time. As an aspiring fantasy writer, her writing is a huge source of inspiration for me.
Without Maggie, I wouldn't have realized just how much I love reading and writing about magic.
"All the Crooked Saints" showed me a new take on a kind of magic. With the "Wolves of Mercy Falls" series she re-imagined werewolves with "The Scorpio Races" she gave readers a new take on kelpies "The Raven Cycle" taught me about lore from the British Isles and lay lines. One of my favorite things about her writing is how she reinterprets particular fantasy aspects. "All the Crooked Saints" has made a place among my favorite novels.
