One Dark Window (The Shepherd King, 1) Review: Amazing! - One of the best YA books I’ve read in a long time! Although this book does not read like a young adult novel because her writing style is so lyrical and haunting it makes the tone and feel of her characters extremely unique. It’s still YA because it’s suitable for younger readers and I personally appreciate that the spice level is low which allows for a real story to unfold (I despise when authors use spice as a crutch to sell a book that doesn’t have much of a plot). The actual concept of the book feels very unique and interesting (think tarot cards with a twist along with dark ancient magic). I thoroughly enjoyed this book and I highly recommend it! Hopefully the second book will be just as good! Review: gothic romance and sassy monsters - m going to finish this review after i sleep on it for a while because I think, after reading knight and the moth, i had such different expectations and im honestly not totally sure how i felt about the book. I LIKED it, but the entire time i just kept waiting for there to be.. something more? like it was good but it felt like something was missing and i can't put my finger on it. --- okay, at this point it's been a few months and I'm still not sure how I felt. I still haven't read book two but these are my thoughts—the underlying story was really, really good. I guessed the plot twist almost immediately and im not sure if it was really meant to be secret or not, but it didn't affect my enjoyment any. I absolutely loved the nightmare, I loved the way, as a reader, we are constantly questioning motives and whether or not someone can be trusted because it kept me on my toes. I loved the MMC and his yearning devotion and I loved the FMC, though I sometimes felt she was a little wishy washy and weak—and after thinking about it, I think that was on purpose, because she does get her moment of "holy, okay, heck yeah" eventually and I loved that for her. the world was really interesting, and I loved the magic system though it wasn't what I was expecting it to be. this isn't a magic system where there are tons of cards to hand out, there are only a handful and the king gives them to his most trusted. the people who protect him, his closest nobles etc. I was expecting the magic to be more prevalent in the world and it's really just about ten or so people. again, this didn't make me not enjoy the book, but it did vastly narrow down the world from what I had thought it was. anyway i did very much enjoy it. I have every intention of reading book two. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,456 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #3 in Dark Fantasy #85 in Epic Fantasy (Books) #94 in Romantic Fantasy (Books) | | Book 1 of 2 | The Shepherd King | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (92,675) | | Dimensions | 5.55 x 1.35 x 8.3 inches | | ISBN-10 | 0316312487 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0316312486 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 432 pages | | Publication date | September 27, 2022 | | Publisher | Orbit | ## Images ![One Dark Window (The Shepherd King, 1) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91fXoFQwgCL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing! *by A***R on December 10, 2025* One of the best YA books I’ve read in a long time!

This book feels like a dark fairy tale, rich in atmosphere and tension. The world building is immersive without being overwhelming, and the story draws you in from the start. Elspeth is a compelling main character. She is intelligent, cautious, and quietly brave, making her easy to connect with as the story unfolds. As the first book in a duology, this sets the stage beautifully. I enjoyed it so much that I began the second book the same day. Highly recommended for readers who enjoy moody fantasy with strong characters.
