I’m absolutely thrilled to be taking part in the book tour for The Aud Torvingen Series by Nicola Griffith, in partnership with Black Crow PR.
This series is unlike anything I’ve read before – raw, complex, and utterly unforgettable.
💥 Three gripping books.
💥One unforgettable protagonist.
📚 The Blue Place
📚 Stay
📚 Always
At the heart of the series is Aud Torvingen – a former cop, heiress, and self-defence expert with a sharp mind, a strong moral compass, and a darker edge that simmers just below the surface. She's unapologetically queer, fierce, intelligent, and layered with nuance.
From the very first page, I found myself both captivated and unnerved by her. Aud is the kind of character who doesn’t just live on the page – she owns it.
These books are part crime fiction, part psychological exploration, and part literary thriller. Think atmospheric settings, moral complexity, slow-burning tension, and beautifully rendered prose.
Nicola Griffith’s writing is powerful, elegant, and never afraid to get uncomfortable. She’s created a series that doesn’t just entertain – it interrogates identity, power, justice, and desire in a way that lingers long after the last page.
I’m still working my way through the series, but I can already tell that this is a body of work I’ll be thinking about for a long time. From the haunting tone of The Blue Place to the emotional depth of Stay and the evolution of Aud’s character in Always, this is a journey of transformation as much as suspense.
🌈 Queer representation
🧠 Intelligent, layered storytelling
⚖️ Complex morality
💥 Slow-burning thrill and emotional punch
Whether you’re a fan of literary thrillers, crime fiction, or just crave a powerful female lead who refuses to be boxed in, The Aud Torvingen Series deserves a spot on your reading list.
A huge thank you to Black Crow PR for the opportunity to be part of this incredible tour.
