Silver in the Wood by Emily Tesh
4.0
emotional mysterious tense fast-paced
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Silver in the Wood unfolds like a fairytale, with a forest that shifts around a great tree and a cottage where Tobias, the Wild Man of Greenhollow, has lived for centuries. He's content with his life away from humans, his constant companions being a cat and the dryads who live within the woods of Greenhollow. Then one day Henry Silver makes his presence known and never quite leaves. The more time this inquisitive human man spends with Tobias, the more the Wild Man of Greenhollow must confront his growing attachment to Silver and what exactly he is willing to risk losing in order to keep him when his past catches up to them. For anyone who loves to lose themselves in fairy worlds, this is a perfect, satisfying match.
