It is a character driven story in a richly imagined world.” - Amazon Review★★★★★ “I was riveted to the story and found it dark, yet enchanting and would dearly love to read further into the story of Yula and Aelbrin, my only complaint being that this was such a short story as I did not want it to end.” - Amazon Review★★★★★ “Ford has packed an incredible amount of world-building into 60-odd pages without compromising that fairy tale pace. I definitely want to read more of this world!” - Amazon Review★★★★★ “It had fantasy, magic and just the right amount of steaminess.
