Review: By Chance or Providence

By Chance or Providence By Chance or Providence by Becky Cloonan
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was so good I read it in one sitting. Not that it's particularly long!

Three short stories connected by the themes of love and tragedy. I loved each for their own reasons and each one affected me differently.

These each have a medieval setting, which is very much my jam. The art style is also very much my jam, so this was perfect for me. The length of each story was perfect, and each was told so elegantly with no superfluous detail. Absolutely nailed the writing on this one.

And the art! Oh my, what gorgeous creatures live in these pages. The concept sketches at the back are simply DIVINE.

My only complaint is that three stories just wasn't enough - I wanted more!

This is definitely a fave, and fans of darker, medieval fantasy should enjoy this like I did.
