Book Review of Wisp of a Thing (Tufa, Bk 2)

Wisp of a Thing (Tufa, Bk 2)
MikeBpale avatar reviewed on


This is the second Tufa novel by Alex Bledsoe. You do not need to read the first novel "The Hum and the Shiver" to understand Wisp of a Thing. It does touch upon some of the characters in that book so there's definitely a sense of continuity.

I literally could not put this book down and read it in one sitting. Bledsoe paints his world with such a sense of realness and richness I feel I could hop in the car and drive to Needsville, Tennessee. I expect the dark haired, dark eyed Tufa to be living their mysterious lives and singing their soulful music in those Appalachia hills.

I really do hope Alex Bledsoe has more to write about his modern fairy people.
