Another amazing story from Ancrum, and I'm unsurprised that I absolutely loved it. The author's note at the end of the book really cemented this one for me as a spectacular book; the context is adds just sharpens the overall message and tone of the story. I was very anxious coming up to the end of this book--having an idea of how the myth goes--but, while I did shed some tears, I feel that it was a very satisfactory and appropriate conclusion to this story. I recommend everyone try out a K. Ancrum book at some point.
