This sometimes unsettling yet consistently delightful fairy tale feels like a marriage of the clever schemes of Trip Galey’s A Market of Dreams and Destiny and the metaphors of Kelly Barnhill’s The Crane Husband.
A tense, moving narrative centered on feminism, women’s rights, and one woman’s journey to reclaim herself. Fans of Stephen King’s Carrie, which depicts a more destructive but less nuanced rage, will find much to love here.
Harris (Chocolat) beautifully weaves folklore and inspiration from the Child Ballads into a longer story with vivid prose, lush settings, and characters who win your heart. Will appeal to fans of Seanan McGuire's "Wayward Children" series.
This slow-moving thriller is worth the reader's time—the riveting last 30 pages will have you speed reading to the satisfying ending. Harris's sharp-eyed observations of human behavior are on the mark.
The self-deprecating humor, the vocal variety in keeping with Loki's view of the characters, and the repeated lessons hammered in about trust make this audio eminently approachable for fans of both the comics and Norse mythology. ["Loki's sly charm, devious nature, and conflicted character shine through": LJ Xpress Reviews 5/8/15 review of the Saga hc.]
Harris has used this story as a plea for tolerance and understanding, but her message is not the least pedantic. Fans of the first two books will delight in becoming reacquainted with Vianne, her dashing man, Roux, and her clever daughters. [See Prepub Alert, 4/16/12.]
