Reviews
"Moreno-Garcia ( Certain Dark Things ) fills her fantastic novel of manners with sumptuous language and plausible romantic complications in a setting that appears to be based on 19th-century France and is lightly garnished with minor magic...Readers who enjoyed Mary Robinette Kowal's Glamourist Histories magical Regency series will be particularly enthralled by the genuine emotions evoked in the course of the unsustainable love triangle." -- Publishers Weekly, "Moreno-Garcia ( Certain Dark Things ) fills her fantastic novel of manners with sumptuous language and plausible romantic complications in a setting that appears to be based on 19th-century France and is lightly garnished with minor magic...Readers who enjoyed Mary Robinette Kowal's Glamourist Histories magical Regency series will be particularly enthralled by the genuine emotions evoked in the course of the unsustainable love triangle." -- Publishers Weekly "This elegant tale of hidden desires and misplaced amour will appeal to fans of historical fantasy." -- Booklist "Think futuristic Jane Austen." -- Vancouver Sun, "Moreno-Garcia fills her fantastic novel of manners with sumptuous language...Readers who enjoyed Mary Robinette Kowal's Glamourist Histories magical Regency series will be particularly enthralled by the genuine emotions evoked in the course of the unsustainable love triangle." - Publishers Weekly "Overflowing with delicious melodrama ... a great fit for fans of the 18th-century French classic Les Liaisons Dangereuses ." - Library Journal "This elegant tale of hidden desires and misplaced amour will appeal to fans of historical fantasy." - Booklist " The Beautiful Ones is an elegantly paced novel that moves its characters into place with ease, with careful attention paid to ways a word or a moment can change an entire life." - Book Page "Many of Moreno-Garcia's characters do terrible, despicable things to hurt each other and profit personally in this book, but that's what keeps them and the narrative interesting. It's a slow-burn, stately novel about the magic of what it means to love, and love truly." - Tor.com "Readers who enjoy light speculative elements, historical fantasy, romance, and beautiful prose will find a trove. Straddling several genres with elegant intelligence, The Beautiful Ones is both an easy read and a fulfilling one." - Locus "This is the third novel I read by Silvia Moreno-Garcia and I loved all of them in different ways: each in a different genre by a chameleon writer with incredible writing skills." - Kirkus " The Beautiful Ones is a hauntingly lovely book, romantic and crushing by turns, touched with magic on every level." - Vancouver Sun "The whole book is a magnificent tangle of unspoken words and feelings. Nothing is tepid; everything, even the absence of feelings, is charged with danger and heartache. " - Strange Horizons "Certain people in the world of The Beautiful Ones have telekinetic abilities, but while these abilities do play an important part in the story, this is not a story of magic unless it's the magic of the human heart." - FantasyLiterature.com "I never quite knew how the story was going to play out with betrayal going on, misunderstandings happening and heartbreak occurring. Overall, I definitely recommend this one." - Literary Dust, Praise for Certain Dark Things , an NPR Best Book of 2016"By turns sensual and grim, introspective and disturbing, suspenseful and moving, and all told in the sleek and lyrical prose for which Moreno-Garcia is deservedly acclaimed." - New York Journal of Books "All the characters in this book are as sharply realized as the city in which they live and fight. Smart, tender and insightful." -NPR.org"The Mexican setting is a huge part of the allure of this new novel from Moreno-Garcia, as are the fascinating varieties of vampires she sets forth." - Library Journal (starred review)
