In the Grimdark Strands of the Spinneret: A Fairy Tale For Elders 

by Keith Anthony Baird 

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
My Ratings 4.3/5

Synopsis
Betrayal brings grave ending to a noble bloodline. Forced to flee, its sole surviving heir is spared this fate by the timely intervention of a haunter of the wilds. In his charge, the maiden embraces the lore of the dark arts and rises to become the watch-keep of the woods. As decades pass, with her legend growing, the ‘witch of root and earth’ weaves subtle deceits in a tangled web of vengeance.

But will there be a fairy tale ending, or will poisoned legacies and pacts with dark forces see ambition unravel in her relentless pursuit of power?

Bloody, and brilliantly realised, Baird’s dark fantasy nightmare spins a lavish tale of dread, desire, and fantastical fury.

My Thoughts
I don’t know about other people but as the seasons turn cooler, my reading tastes change. They become a little bit moodier, a little bit darker. I doubt I’m the only one, given how many thriller and horror novels are joining must-read lists and TBR piles. But what if you don’t want to pick up a thriller? What if you’re a dedicated fantasy reader who wants to walk on the darker side? That’s where dark fantasy books come in.

The definition of dark fantasy can be hard to pin down. It’s not synonymous with horror, but there can be overlap. In fact, fantasy novels written by horror authors often get categorized as dark fantasy. For other people, fantasy novels that are a little grittier, a little bloodier, a little more. In the Grimdark Strands of the Spinneret: A Fairy Tale For Elders by Keith Anthony Baird is an amazing dark fantasy novel story of dread, desire, and fantastical fury.

I found this story to be pretty excellent and very readable for the modern audience. Keith Anthony Bairds’ explanation for the fantasy is a mix of horror and fantasy and is very imaginative.
In the Grimdark Strands of the Spinneret: A Fairy Tale For Elders is a brilliant combination of fiction, fantasy, and supernatural horror. It is a true masterpiece by Keith Anthony Baird.

Highly Recommended!
