How the King of Elfhame Learned to HAte Stories (The Folk of Air #3.5) by Holly Black - A Review




 “A heart of stone can still be broken.”
― Holly Black, How the King of Elfhame Learned to Hate Stories

How the King of Elfhame Learned to Hate Stories is a collection of stories that reveal a deeper look into the dramatic life of Elfhame’s enigmatic high king, Cardan. All these stories are told wholly from Cardan’s perspective.

It was a really enjoyable read and each chapter was paired with lavish and luminous full-color art, that made reading even better. 
Cardan is such an interesting character and I loved how we got a glimpse of his childhood from these stories and saw how (and why) his character developed through time.

Rating: 4 Stars
