4.5

I wish with all of my heart that this was a full novel, a series even. Everything about this story is captivating and heartbreaking. I really feel like it would hold up even as a full novel, which can't be said for all short stories. Okay, maybe I'm just being selfish because I want to see this fully fleshed out. 

The atmosphere of this story is everything any fantasy story should have. Despite giving us minimal details on worldbuilding there is a certain cadence to the rise and fall of the story as well as the dialogue that is just perfect. 

Child, Devil, Saint, and Squire they have my heart.
