Drowned Country

Drowned Country by Emily Tesh, 157 pages

When he leaves his deteriorating forest home to assist his mother with hunting a vampire, Silver is not expecting to embark on an expedition into Fairyland. Yet that's exactly what happens when he finds himself partnered up with a bright-eyed young researcher of the supernatural (who took out the vampire that supposedly abducted her). But the fae are tricky creatures, and this journey into the titular drowned country is no easy one.

As the second book in a duology, this definitely isn't the place to meet these characters. Yet Tesh does a good job of giving this one enough backstory to allow it to exist alone. I don't know that I'd recommend reading this one without the other like I did, but it's definitely an intriguing enough story that I'll seek out the first volume.
