I loved every second of this book every up and every down it has the best fairy tale ending. I loved the characters even more I still especially loved Serilda and Gild they both fought so hard to get back what was taken them it took so much to finally get that happily ever after they so richly deserved. I love even though Serilda was a strong character she still had her weak moments where she was so close to giving up. I loved Gild for his devotion to Serilda and willingness to do whatever to protect her and their child and to reclaim what he has lost. I liked the other characters as well the god characters were interesting there were some interesting revelations there as well I also loved the children as well as most of the people from the village. I loved the plot it starts with Serilda stuck outside her body with her worrying about her baby the children and Gild she and Gild then set out to find their bodies and get rid of the Erlking and everything to do with him once and for all. There are many set backs but by the end there is finally that fairy tale ending that I was waiting for from the very start.
