A retelling of East of the Sun, West of the Moon, with flavour of [b:Beauty and the Beast, but even more of Cupid and Psyche. Not deep or memorable, but very nice indeed, lots of pretty little touches.The one jarring note was his attempt at using an archaic style. He tried a bit too hard, I think, without having a real feel for how the language should flow. Dropping 'did' into sentences at random doesn't really cover it. (  ) krisiti | Jul 1, 2009 |  This story is from a old fairy tale and well done. (  ) Ipsofacto | Jul 31, 2008 | Eh. It's a short, easy read. Cute, fun story. I felt that McKiernan pushed his views a little too much though. The story flow is interrupted and it's a bit preachy. (  ) leld | Aug 11, 2006 | The first book in this series. It is a change of pace for Mckiernan. I like how he sets the plot up. Very traditonal Cinderella story. (  ) arelenriel | Aug 5, 2006 |  no reviews | add a review
