tonikayk's review against another edition
5.0
I would suggest this Indie published book to not only the young but also more mature readers. The writing is almost like poetry, and it is a interesting story about judgement and society. Some may only see the story of Alcine and Zos, but I found it intriguing how society can label and destroy. Great read.

THE REVIEW
Why this book?
It seemed interesting
What I thought
I'm confused by this book... I don't know if I liked it or not. I have to think about it more. One things for sure I really hated the towns people, and I don't understand why they considered Zos a beast. What did he do to them? One thing I really like though is the relationship between Zos and Alcina. Like others say there are some similarities to Beauty and the Beast which is my favorite fairytale, so you would think I would love this. Unfortunately though The strengths of this book are outweighed by its weaknesses. Overall an ok read.
