About this listen
'Forget dark academia: give me instead this kind of winter-sunshined, sharp-tongued and footnoted academia, full of field trips and grumpy romance' Freya Marske, author of A Marvellous Light
An intrepid professor must uncover faerie secrets in the delightful and heart-warming second instalment of the Sunday Times bestselling Emily Wilde series.
Emily Wilde is a genius scholar of faerie folklore, and has catalogued many secrets of the Hidden Folk in her encyclopaedia with her infuriatingly charming fellow scholar, Wendell Bambleby, by her side.
But Bambleby is more than just a brilliant and unbearably handsome scholar. He's an exiled faerie king on the run from his murderous mother, in search of a door back to his realm.
By lucky happenstance, Emily's new project, a map of the realms of faerie, will take them on an adventure to the picturesque Austrian Alps, where Emily believes they may find the door to Bambleby's realm, and the key to freeing him from his family's dark plans.
But with new friendships for the prickly Emily to navigate and dangerous Folk lurking in every forest and hollow, Emily must unravel the mysterious workings of faerie doors, and of her own heart.

Wonderful story, beautifully read

Emily and Wendell's relationship and banter increased tenfold and had me grinning, giggling, swooning, and so excited for every moment they had together on the page. The increased confidence and development of the characters is massive and just so beautiful and heart-warming to read - including with the two new central characters (to this book anyway) that were introduced: Ariadne, Emily's niece, and Rose, a fellow Cambridge professor that seeks to discredit Emily and Wendell's work.
I loved seeing the more personal nature of Emily's research in this book (she's seeking the door to Wendell's home realm). It is still very academically centered research, but Emily's character and relationship developments really shine through in her more personal determination to seek answers. She is willing to risk far more, trusts more blindly, and the hope, freedom, and love she experiences as a result is just so wonderful to read!
The autism representation in this book is just as incredible as the first. I wholeheartedly love how part of Emily's character development is accepting and understanding herself better. Now that she has someone who loves and embraces every part of her, she becomes more self-aware, embracing who she is, recognising where she needs some extra support, and never once talks (or even thinks) down on herself for those struggles (as she did at times in the first book). Who she is, is beautiful - she is intelligent, strong, independent, and beautiful, and she is finally able to accept and embrace that in this book. It was just so wonderful to read and made me feel so seen!
The ending of this book had me grinning so much and I cannot wait for book 3! I am desperate for more! Please pick up Emily Wilde's Map of the Otherlands as soon as you are able!
Absolutely brilliant! A favourite of all time!

Highly recommend this series for a low-stakes, entertaining and fun read; Fawcett's imagination takes a vivid image and lets you spin it into something wonderful. UNMISSABLE!
