4.5

The epigraph of the book quotes C.S. Lewis saying “some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again”. Colfer takes the stories that we loved as children and gives them a new, yet familiar life in this fast-paced adventure. Where parts of it are definitely written with a young audience in mind, it was a joy to be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.
