Beschrijving

In the heart of the enchanting Greenhollow, Tobias dwells in serene solitude, a guardian of the woods who possesses an intimate connection with nature. The forest whispers to him, revealing its ancient secrets and the rhythms of life that pulse within its depths. This tranquil existence, however, is disrupted when an unexpected visitor stirs his world.

As the narrative unfolds, the reader is drawn into the complexities of Tobias's life and the relationships he forges. The tension between light and shadow—both in the forest and within his own spirit—creates a rich tapestry of emotions. The arrival of this newcomer not only challenges Tobias's solitude but also forces him to confront the hidden truths about himself and his connection to the enigmatic Wild Man legend that surrounds him.

Mystery and magic weave together as Tobias navigates the delicate balance between yearning for companionship and treasuring his isolation. The journey explores themes of identity, love, and the profound bond humans share with the untamed essence of the natural world.

Tobias is linked to the forest. The forest is linked to him. With a few dryads and a cat for company, his simple and focused life soon takes a turn when the new owner of Greenhollow Hall arrives.Not only is Henry Silver handsome, but he’s also incredibly curious, and with this curiosity, Tobias’ past, soon comes back to haunt him. Silver in the Wood is a novella, so it didn’t take long to read. But don’t let the shortness of this story fool you. It still packs a punch.As soon as I read the word ‘dryad’, I was all in. The descriptions of the wood Tobias lives in, the dryads themselves, and all the magical characters in the book are fantastic. They’re vivid and descriptive but don’t linger too long. Giving you just enough so you can move forward with the story.Considering how short it is, it does a fantastic job of world-building and character development. This is partly due to the small cast of characters and the enclosed setting. At the end of the read, I didn’t feel like I needed more. The story, while left a little open, felt satisfying. It gave me plenty and allowed me to move on. A great little read if you’re looking for a quick hit of fantasy. For more reviews and book recommendations, check out my YouTube channel
