Read with my book club and was very enjoyable read. Lots of stories and folk tales I hadn’t heard before. Made me want to visit all these places in the UK to relive them. I especially loved the Panther story - so magical. It’s also really helpful how the original folk tales are in the back, so you can compare them with the retelling.
