2020-2021 Rainbow Awards Honorable Mention: Secrets of Milan (Night Flyer Trilogy #2)
Secrets of Milan (Night Flyer Trilogy #2) by Edale Lane
This historical fantasy is deeply evocative, with a writing style that captures the essence of Renaissance Italy and transports the reader into the world Lane creates. The emotional depth and sense of the character's internal journeys are evident as well. Secret Identity books can be difficult to pull off well, but the author's narrative style and tight structure make this a magnificent work. One critique: consider getting an editor who examines contextual/time period word use. If the setting is 1502, some of the words used in dialogue wouldn't be standard for the time era.
