Thank you to the author for the gift of this book. To be honest I wouldn't have bought the book, as Victorian or steampunk are just not to my taste...my bad, I would have missed a good tale. I've read this author before and I like her easy to read style so I was happy to try down the rabbit hole I went.
This was a YA fairy tale and a little dark, full of fantasy creatures in a weird and wonderful world. Humans against Hags and Trolls and other assorted strange creatures.
Edna a 15 year old girl is on the hunt for her kidnapped younger brother, along the way she too is taken. Her journey to escape and rescue him is quite the roller coaster ride, both fun and wrought with danger.
The story was steadily paced once I got into the story and worked out who was what and the characters interesting and entertaining. Well done Jordan, I loved it.
