It's...fine. I think the most interesting part was near the end, which I will not disclose. However, I was looking for more Pagan lore. Really, it was just a 'Beauty and the Beast' with a touch of 'Unholy demon, may god smite you!' It was really disappointing that his deer skull was a mask and he's just a "HOT GUY TM." I probably would preferred it if he stayed as a deer skulled demon who wanted to slurp up her magic like a Capri Sun. If you want something all swoon and princely, read this. If you want something more like the clash of Paganism vs. Christianity and woman don't give 0 shits about who sees her as a witch, read The Bear and the Nightingale.
