Every single MC reaction was over the top, too annoying to continue.

This book had a really interesting premise. But, it didn't grab me the way some of the author's other work has. I enjoyed the overall plot, but the pacing felt off. Also, I found it difficult to like the main character, Rudi. I wanted to like him, and there were times I did, but other times I just found him irritating. I did love the references to Lord Umber though; that made me happy. I would consider reading this book again, but there are so many books and so little time that I think I would only do so if I had little else to choose from. It would also depend on what those other options were...
So, basically, it was not my favorite, but it wasn't bad. I would recommend it to people who like retellings of fairy tales. Although I would probably suggest the whole series, not just this one.
Rating: Heavy PG or light PG-13 for fantasy violence and some disturbing themes and sections.
