4.0

Ah man, this could have been a 5 star. Far from the expected POTO fanfic (at first), Erik's early life was woven artfully and enticingly. Stop there. Stop reading as soon as Christine is mentioned. Because after that, it's offputting, cardboard fanfic with gross liberties taken. But hey, she doesn't actually come into the story until about 75% through, so there's plenty of good story to earn 4 stars.
