They search him here they search him there Those Muntegri search him everywhere He may be a hero but he s cruel as wellMaking Cay s life a living hell But Cay hid and tricked and even lied Because of him they nearly died Still words sparkle winds blowLove blossoms and trust grows Gay and Lesbian Romance Fantasy A gripping story that kept me on tenterhooks the whole time Fast paced and in parts action packed but also angsty resonant and so so rich Keefe set herself a difficult task getting us to care about a relationship in which one MC Adrio is cruel snide and distant and as the non POV character almost completely inaccessible to the reader while our narrator Cay is baffled heartsick and stranded in a marriage suddenly turned sour but also secretive and prone to rash decisions In the main narrative we are experiencing Adrio s jabs and malice through two layers of confusion Cay s lack of mastery of the obtuse courtly starlight conversation which Adrio uses to code his disdain and fundamentally Cay s lack of understanding of why his new husband suddenly with no explanation rejected him in stark contrast to their brief but ardent courtship which we get in concise melancholy tinged flashbacks Cay knows he has lost his husband s love but he doesn t know why And despite himself he still loves Adrio and despises his own weakness in clinging to this love Cay is a survivor through and through but he is also almost entirely alienated living in the house of his rich noble husband who hates him barely accepted by the society in which they move who see only his history as a poor refugee and tradesman possessed of only a single confidant Ondrei who is nonetheless unblinkingly loyal to Adrio his longtime friend and even distanced from his brilliant beloved younger sister Kell who has a genuine mutually affectionate friendship with Adrio which Cay is loathe to betray Living in luxury but trapped by circumstance and protective of his secrets Cay is ripe to be preyed upon by an envoy spy sent by the evil regime of his former homeland and it is this spy s machinations and threats that set the plot in motion. The uncanny counter age rating This book thus lives and dies on whether the Cay Adrio relationship can be believably salvaged and rehabilitated Adrio has a huge hill to climb for the reader to understand why he acted as he did and be willing to forgive him A lesser author wouldn t manage it or would drag out the mis non communication and obstacles to the point that there s no reason to root for these two in the first place But Keefe deftly guides us through these emotional rapids The first major confrontation between Adrio and Cay where we finally start to piece together some of what s been going on mostly from Adrio s side Cay keeps his secrets from us too is enraging frustrating and masterfully done And crucially it is followed up by a fantastic scene with an incensed Kell in which yet pieces come to light information that Cay in despair and hopelessness withheld from a husband who no longer cared to hear Finally Adrio is forced to question his own assumptions and behavior and start reckoning with the harm he s caused But the path to reconciliation is not an easy one and this too is crucial Cay is no pushover and not one to let Adrio easily off the hook Cay acknowledges that his secrets had costs but recognizing this does not absolve Adrio for his actions Cay must thus reckon with what he is able to forgive and whether what s left is enough to not just save but build upon and make whole All of this is woven in with meditations on honor trust and what we do to survive meditations that are rooted in Adrio and Cay s characters and actions so that they feel integral and explanatory to why they behaved as they did. The uncanny aviatorm book Note however that I m not kidding when I said that Adrio really is horrible for a good chunk of the book This includes a scene that is not technically dubcon but is incredibly hard to read for the way Adrio treats Cay and how Cay is affected Again this book sets itself a tough task and only works if you believe Adrio is ultimately forgivable including for a scene that can only be described as vengeance sex Proceed with caution. The Uncanny aviatory But I genuinely hope that this book finds a lot of readers for there is so much to delight in here I adored its cleverness its integrity its colorful world its challenge its heart One of my most compelling reads of the year thus far and a real gem. The uncanny aviatorz zoo I got an ARC from GRR in exchange for an honest review Gay and Lesbian Romance Fantasy so this was a fun read i always love me an established couple especially one with trust issues the first part was a lot of relationship and emotional turmoil and ngl i was so mad for the first 30% or so cos adrio was an incredibly beastly jerk and poor cay i advise hot soup to help with the anger. Kindle the uncanny aviator review but they did get better cay and adrio even with all the secrets were to some extent ready to work things out instead of say breaking up hastily cay is my absolute fave cos he s a badass and stayed with adrio even after all the insults adrio actually the worldbuilding was pretty fun i liked reading about the political turmoils and the conflicts between the societal classes Starlight Conversation and the Chende culture with the blood debts feuds are interesting concepts such a pity they re fictional obviously i would like seeing of cay adrio but with that hfn i don t have much hope _ _ 4. Book the uncanny aviator review 5 stars Gay and Lesbian Romance Fantasy It s been 5 years but this is finally the third publication by this author And the third one that s been a hit for me She s treading into autobuy territory Yummy relationship angst for the win Gay and Lesbian Romance Fantasy So uh I loved Jenya Keefe s other two books especially The Musician and the Monster and I might be a little bit excited about the fact that ARCs for this one have just shown up on GRR ETA here to report that shamelessly sucking up to the author on GR proved a successful tactic 5 16 24 ETA And now the actual review This doesn t take flight immediately I was going to say that the worldbuilding is a bit clunky but that s not really the issue It s that after a brief prequel we launch right into that part of the relationship between Adrio and Cay when Adrio s completely alienated from Cay and treats him badly while Cay pines and is grateful for every crumb of even feigned affection Because we ve gotten only a glimpse of their relationship before its breakdown it s hard to understand or believe in Cay s persistent love for Adrio Later on flashbacks to their courtship fill in that gap but at the book s outset you do have to suspend what I might call characterization disbelief. The uncanny aviator book review That having been said persistence pays off As the suspense plot thickens Cay appears as and clever and resourceful and the shape of his past begins to show itself Well before his secrets were revealed in detail I understood that he had strong reasons for keeping them And as we get and flashbacks in which Adrio tries to get Cay to open up to him but Cay deflects distracts and outright lies Adrio s hostility comes to make sense though wisely Keefe s narrative never excuses his cruelties. The Uncanny Aviator book This is where the book really shines I think Adrio finally pushes Cay too far and Cay decides to end their relationship a resolution he keeps even though he s still in love with Adrio and even when Adrio as he understands of Cay s heart and past begins to thaw toward him They rebuild trust in each other slowly and painfully that emotional progress gets The Uncanny Aviator 5 stars and never mind the wobbles in the first few chapters The story ends with a strong HFN for Cay and Adrio but the story of the Chende people remains unresolved which makes me want and hope for a sequel in which the monstrous Grup party think Nazis is overthrown Jenya Keefe are you listening Thanks to Gay Romance Reviews for the ARC Gay and Lesbian Romance Fantasy
