4.5
4.5 stars overall, a middle ground between the 4 stars I'd give for the story and the well-deserved 5 stars for the audiobook performance. It's just lovely!
If you've never read a dramatised or full-cast audiobook before, try this one.
If you love fairytale retellings, this is for you.
If you want to be immersed but only have time for a short story right now, listen to this.
If you've been meaning to read a Gaiman book but couldn't decide where to begin, this is your sign.
This is a charming fairytale retelling with strong female characters who save themselves. It's taken two well-loved fairytales and blended them into one interlinking story. The value and quality of the production is amazing. It adds layer upon layer of sound effects, dialogue, music etc, which builds into a captivating ambience.
