The Door in the Hedge by Robin McKinley

4.0

Solid fantasy stories with a basis in faery tales. Slightly cleaner and less 'gritty' than many more recent faery tale adaptations, but a nice read for all that. I did find that there was a strong undercurrent of gender essentialism, although that may be that I've been reading some pretty cluey stuff lately, and that this just reflects poorly in the light of that other reading.
