Summary
There is something magical about childhood. Sometimes entirely in the fairytale sense. The only question is what it costs… and who pays.
Author’s Note:
Chronologically, this story takes place between Circles of Sight and Willing Harvest. Reading it in that order will give you additional context, and certain moments may land with greater impact, especially once you reach Definitely Not a Hero’s Journey. You’ll notice things Amy doesn’t, and there’s a particular kind of fun in watching a POV character slowly piece together what you already suspect.
However, that approach also softens some of the intended mystery and undercuts the unreliable narrator element. For that reason, I’ve placed this story later in the series.
You may find it more satisfying to wait and read A Gift of Death after Definitely Not a Hero’s Journey is complete (which I hope to finish within the next few months). Doing so might even give you a reason to revisit the series with fresh eyes.
Ultimately, the choice is yours, but consider this your warning: There are SPOILERS ahead!Series
