Wow, what a ride. I received this for review from Netgalley and I have to say, I was pleasantly surprised. I agreed to review this without reading the first books in the series because I absolutely adore faerie tales. Whether they are love stories of the “high fae” or tales of caution for children to not enter the woods at night for there lurks faeries that will snatch them, maybe even turn them into a changeling so that no one knows they’re gone. This story was of the latter persuasion.

I was provided a summary of the first books to help with the story. The illustrated covers are perfect for the tone of the books, reminiscent of those found in old fairytale books, though they aren’t eye catching enough and I believe these books should be much more popular. Anne is a curious and fairly typical 13 yr old and I believe many around her age and even older would enjoy this YA series.

This is truly a journey, with many of the classic faerie world types for story support. Readers that loved Holly Black, especially the Modern Faerytales, will enjoy this. It has more mystery and can be read by a broader, younger audience, but that same eerie old world grit creepers in the dark feel is there. It’s a tale of friendship and growing up, to fight against the dark, a mystery and a puzzle, a race against time. I thoroughly enjoyed it. And I plan to pick up the first two books to have a reread in the future with my children.

Thank you so much for the opportunity to read this book. Unfortunately I have been unable to get into it.

Lang's Labyrinth is the third and final book of Forests of Fae series. If mystery, fantasy and eerie creatures are your cup of tea, I would strongly suggest you to check this story out. It is about the disturbing truth behind the fae world and the friendship that develops between thirteen year old Anne and Grace. As they unravel the dark mysteries surrounding a ghost town in rural Washington, their lives get intertwined with those creatures we call fairies. As with the previous 2 books, I loved how the tension builds up and keeps you on your toes. At some point I started doubting all of the characters but at least had a hunch about how things would end... but I was wrong, the story kept surprising me until the very end. This is the kind of book I would have loved to read with my siblings before going to bed. Instead I read it alone, at midnight, and it was great. I requested an eArc from Incorgnito Publishing Press in exchange of a fair review.

Lang’s Labyrinth is the third installment in the Forests of Fae series. The entire world is beautifully crafted in this third installment. The characters were well thought out and they have an increased development throughout the adventure! A tear also rolled down my check as Ann read the journal at the end! It was a fun fast read that left me wanting more!
