3.5 for the artwork tbqh
I didn't realize this was two stories compiled in one volume. My rating is a reflection of how I found the tales overall.
The art is GORGEOUS, especially with "The Daughter of Owls." So much attention to detail and it looked like a fairytale to match the actual story! I would have liked to see a feature about the artist and his process for creating two varied styles for this book (perhaps "Snow, Glass, Apples" spoiled me)!
