This small self-contained addition to the Kingkiller Chronicle was quaint and pleasant but also fantastical and mischievous with flashes of darkness. Although I loved the other Kingkiller Chronicle books, it has been a while since I’ve read them and I was worried I might be lost reading this one but I think it was good on its own. I know there were a few things I missed that referred to the main story but I don’t think it detracted from my enjoyment of the story. All in all, it was a very quaint morsel of a story. 

Read if you like whimsical mystic stories about flawed characters with a satisfying arc.
