I remember sampling this book months ago. After revisiting, I had to delve into it! The McNabb boys and Cate are definitely as evil as you describe, but Conor's character was definitely worth reading about. Thanks for your honest review!

I can honestly say that if I wasn't already sold on reading the book, the review has sold me. It gave me just enough detail to wet my proverbial "imagination taste-buds," without giving away any deep secrets. I do appreciate indicating the attention the author pays to historic details relating to the area...too many writers forget that there must always be a bit of fact to all fiction for the story to work. Thank you for providing such an interesting and detailed review.

Great job on the review! This sounds like something I would like. :techie-studyingbrown: I can enjoy well written fantasy with lots of folk lore. The fact that 4/4 is the only rating you could imagine for it really seals the deal for me.

This is my favorite kind of genre. I've read a lot of fantasy including all of Cassandra Clare's book, so this sounds right up my alley. Thanks for the review.
