Review: Another winner from Laini Taylor

Firstly, this isn't a prequel to the 'Daughter of Smoke & Bones' series, it falls within the timeline of the first novel so don't read this without having read "Daughter of Smoke and Bone" beforehand.This is a lovely mini-tale of secondary DoS&B; characters & Taylor does a neat job of finding those characters' voices. It's a small, delightful, cake-like treat that will keep you enthralled throughout - definitely not just a young adult entry either.'Cake' and the entire 'Daughter' series are fine entries in young (and old!) adult fantasy fiction with a uniquely visualized universe and unexpectedly fine writing. Taylor's pen definitely writes on clean Bone with much more than transient Smoke; I look forward to reading a great deal more from her.
