In het uitgebreide panorama van de Japanse kunst slagen maar weinig werken erin de essentie van melancholie en tragische schoonheid vast te leggen, zoals "Shiranui knielend naast een gekruisigde man" van Tsukioka Yoshitoshi. Dit iconische kunstwerk, dat binnen de traditie van ukiyo-e valt, roept een diepe reflectie op over menselijk lijden en spiritualiteit. Door zich onder te dompelen in dit stuk, wordt de kijker onmiddellijk meegenomen naar een wereld waar emoties en verhalen samenkomen, en een verhaal van liefde en opoffering onthullen. De figuur van Shiranui, gracieus knielend, belichaamt een stille kracht, veerkracht te midden van tegenspoed, terwijl ze gehuld is in een aura van mysterie en verdriet. Stijl en uniekheid van het werk De stijl van Yoshitoshi is zowel gedurfd als verfijnd, een perfecte balans tussen realisme en verbeelding. In dit werk is de compositie zorgvuldig georkestreerd, met aandacht voor de minutieuze details van de kleding en gezichtsuitdrukkingen van de personages. Het kleurenpalet, rijk en genuanceerd, speelt een essentiële rol in het overbrengen van emoties. Donkere en lichte tinten wisselen elkaar af, waardoor een sfeer ontstaat die zowel somber als stralend is, en de strijd tussen leven en dood weerspiegelt. De houding van Shiranui, haar gekantelde hoofd en gevouwen handen, suggereert een gebed of smeekbede, terwijl de gekruisigde man op de achtergrond het ultieme offer symboliseert. Deze juxtapositie tussen heldendom en kwetsbaarheid maakt dit werk zo uniek en boeiend. De kunstenaar en zijn invloed Tsukioka Yoshitoshi, een belangrijke figuur binnen ukiyo-e, heeft deze traditionele kunstvorm opnieuw uitgevonden door er moderne elementen en donkerdere thema's aan toe te voegen. Geboren in 1839, heeft hij periodes van sociale en politieke onrust in Japan doorgemaakt, wat zijn werk diepgaand heeft beïnvloed. Yoshitoshi staat bekend om zijn vermogen om scènes vast te leggen met een zeldzame emotionele intensiteit, vaak geïnspireerd door legendes, historische verhalen en alledaagse episodes. Zijn werk markeerde een overgang in de kunstShipping Notes

Slow, sorry but good
Format: Kindle
This was a slow moving book. Lots of character pov chapters, lots of superfluous descriptions and endless courtly appearances stalled this book to start. Once you get into the heart of the story, it takes off. Before you know it the book is done. My favorite character is Reyna. She is so strong. She is true to herself. She gets into a lot of trouble with her headstrong ways but it's entertaining. I have high hopes for Lorcan. He is honorable to a fault. Thane had turned out to be better than I thought but i still don't like him. Eislin is useless. Great plot twists at the end. I'm looking forward too book 2.

Very detailed! Beautiful world building! Strong Heroine!
Format: Kindle
Starts off a little slow and confusing with different POV’s, but starts to all come together towards the middle to make an elaborate plot line and makes it all worth it. Beautiful world building and attention to detail as well as great writing. The cliffhanger was gut wrenching! Can’t wait for the next book!

Interesting
Format: Kindle
This was a very captivating book once you got into it thoroughly. But the third person perspective was a bit hard to get used to. But as you got into it and followed the different characters, it was interesting and filled with intrigue, conflict and forbidden love.
I can’t wait to read the next one and to complete the series.

OUTSTANDING
Format: Kindle
This was very, very good. The world is vast and characters are complex. There is a good plot with a whole lot going on. This is well written. Good twists and turns and some heart breaking moments. You will love these characters, they have heart and loyalty. I am hoping that there will be several more books. We've yet to see anything from the Sea Court but only a mention of them here and there. The Wood Court was given a quick couple of scenes, and only as far as some warriors, we've yet to enter their court and the Shadow Court, I'm not sure if they will be a force for good or bad, but they definitely will play a much bigger role moving forward. This is primarily the Ice and Air Courts. Told in multiple views, which I loved, it gives you a chance to see things from different eyes. There's alot of political maneuvering and deception. I loved it and will pick up the next book as it becomes available. If you like The Fae and the courts, you should love this. I think the author has mucn in store for us.

Definitely worth the read!
Format: Kindle
After taking a deep breath and taking in that wicked twist of an ending, I have finally composed myself. My first thought when I started this book was that I love Reyna's character. I was intrigued by her connection with her familiar and the Ruin that is plaguing her land. It came as no surprise that she took her sister's place in an attempt to protect her. When they reach the Air Court everything slows down. This is where it was iffy for me. First of all, I like multiple POV's in books however 7 is a bit much. It starts to interrupt the story line. I felt like I was finally making progress connecting with one character, then it was switched to another person. I felt they all had necessary or pertinent information but not necessarily were they all POV worthy. The only other thing that annoyed me was that Reyna constantly was " trapped." She would rush off without thinking, only to need rescuing. She is brilliant in a fight, but she really doesn't think through anything. Lorcan is amazing. I know he might be on the "bad" list, but his background is so interesting. Eislyn(Reyna's sister) is really so sweet, but calculating. I enjoyed her and Thane's dialogue. The author did an amazing job with the imagery in this book. Everything was so detailed it was easy to fall into the scene. I love unexpected twists and while part of the ending I expected, I wasn't expecting how it took place. All in all, I found it very entertaining and I am very invested in continuing this series.
Favorite quotes:
"The truth may be twisted but never false."
"Who was she if she was not the enemy of the Air Court? What was her purpose of she no longer has that?"
"In a war-torn land, love was always a lie."
