I recently finished a book that I found to be quite a quick and easy read. The story is set in an alternative Elizabethan era and centres around a romantic fantasy theme. The main characters are Fang and Lazare, two unique creatures who join forces with apothecary Nell and a small dragon named Amber to break a curse. While the story has its humorous moments, the frequent transitions in the narrative may challenge readers to keep pace with the unfolding events. I found it difficult at times to follow the narrative due to these frequent shifts. Moreover, I felt that the plot was lacking and in need of further development. Exploring a more nuanced and elaborate plot could have added depth and complexity to this already captivating storyline.
