Wow!!! Brom is truly a master and an artist. The writing of this book was perfection, and made me imagine the world so vividly. I also love how not a single character was completely good or bad. It had me questioning who to believe or root for constantly. And even though this is based on a well known fairy tale, it still felt completely new and original. 
Absolutely loved it and I want to read everything else Brom has written. 
Read from the BYU library.
