This story is a re-teilling of Red Riding Hood. However, it is different enough and includes some hints of other fairy tales to stand on its own without leaning too much into Red Riding Hood.
At the beginning, the story is slightly complicated to follow, as you have the "Bond" with the Wilderwood from the past and in the present, the meaning and full story has been lost and re-told so many times that only parts of it remain true. As the book continues you get to piece together what really happend and what's going on. While some twists are more predictable than others, I did enjoy this story and its characters.
And I am definitely hooked for book 2. I want to know ALL about the Five Kings and the Shadowlands.
