A Court of Mist and Fury
By
Sarah J. Maas
A
book second in a series of Faery Smut, of which I didn’t know what I was getting
myself in to. With two prime threads of
drama. First, Maas keeps the reader
engaged on suspense for the survival of species, Ferry and Humans. The suspense comes in the form of a quest to
find certain things to cast a magic spell over the land to prevent a war. This is classic form from the Game of Thrones
genre. This alone would not be enough to
drag readers through the series of books.
On that note Mass entertains the reader with what I call ‘Girl Smut’. Towards the end of the book the two prime
characters who have brought the sexual tension to a peak, climaxes with not one
but TWO chapters of sexual intercourse.
Every imaginable sensation that a women could manifest is spelled out in
colorful detail. Me a reader of the male
species is caught in awe and wonderment.
Could that much electricity be flowing through every cell of a woman’s
body in the rise and climax? The only
way to answer this question is to read the book full of scene setting and
dynamic foreplay that cuts across many supporting characters.
