Where the fae and human realms meet…

Same old sleepy small-town France. I spend my days serving patisserie badly to the outlandish crowd at the café, and writing folklore research papers that will never, ever be published.

That’s until my clanger of a drunken hookup with the town’s hot new doctor, who turns into a hideous drac and eats Grampi’s favourite goat. Oh, and not to mention, a troop of ragtag fae storms my home, a fatal illness devastates the town, and a fae curse threatens Grampi’s life.

I may be having trouble accepting this new and delightful side of reality, but my knowledge of folklore means I have a shot at sorting this whole mess out before the town and everything I love is destroyed. The only thing is, I’ll have to work with the devious, scumbag doctor (he’s still picking goat out of his teeth). And he just might be the biggest challenge of all.

With flawed characters and strong emotional arcs, the Folkloric series weaves a beguiling hidden fae world with epic stakes, all the feels and delectable series-wide, slow-burn romance. The chosen one and the perfect hero were so traumatised by the goblins, they upped and left for another book.

I listened to this as it was free with my Audible subscription. I was very pleasantly surprised at how quickly I got into the story. Excellent world building and strong character development, I was hooked almost from the start.

The start of a promising series.
Different in that it’s based in France.
Great that there is a sassy young woman involved and who can resist mythical beings?
Will there be another Audible?

Camille spends her time working in a cafe and caring for her elderly grandfather and their goats. In her free time she researches the local folklore and stories. When she meets the new doctor Lucas, her decision to spend a night with him, opens her eyes to a truth far stranger than any local story.

This is a fast paced adventure filled with French folklore. Since I know nothing about Folklore, this was an interesting aspect to the story, that added a unique twist to this contemporary fantasy story.

Camille is a strong female character who isn't afraid to share kindness and compassion, while also sharing the flaws and fears that make her human. She has placed family and responsibility ahead of her own dreams and is frustrated by it. Camille might not love the life she is living but she does love her Grampi, and will do anything for him.

Lucas is more complicated, he has a talent for healing and shows remarkable bravery, but he isn't afraid of violence or doing whatever it takes to achieve his goals. He can be selfish and often forgets he has introduced Camille to a whole new reality with very little explanation. Clearly he has secrets that we haven't been introduced to yet that have shaped his character. The Men for example are incredibly loyal and protective of him.

The two characters are a nice compliment to each other. This was a great introduction to the series and I am eager to see how it unfolds.

Folkloric is a fun adventure
