I wonder if Maggie wrote this during a fever dream! It's an odd little story. But, I am looking forward to see the tie-in to Call Down the Hawk. That could change my rating! Really, this is ONLY for readers of the Raven Cycle and those getting ready to dive in to CDTH.

Did Opal actually need a spinoff?
I thought her growing consciousness and her observations of the "animal world" as opposed to the dream world she comes from were interesting. Having her learn about the hard and fast rules of the real world added a nice touch. I expected more conflict, although I realize there's only so much you can do in 38 pages, unlike the main books in the series which were around 400.
It was interesting to see the world from Opal's perspective too. I liked her description of the Fox Way women who "drank tea and read tarot cards." And who was the woman who came to the Barns? I hope this is touched upon more in the Dreamer series.
In general, I never saw Opal with much personality, and I'm sorry to say I never really thought she needed one. She's very different from all the other sentient things Ronan created.
I do like how this may be a bridge to the Dreamer series, which I will be reading later in the month.
