I need to watch the film again ASAP! Pan's Labyrinth is one of my favourite movies of all time, so when I heard it was being adapted into a novel, words could not describe my excitement. Del Toro and Funke did not disappoint! The novel adaptation provides a wonderfully fresh take on the beloved film, filling in details and giving side character so much more depth by telling things from their perspective. I especially enjoyed the mini fairytales between the chapters that told the tales of the witch, the Faun, and the bookmaker. All of the stories were fantastic, but those three were my favourites.

I listened to the audiobook while reading along with a physical copy, which I would definitely recommend. The illustrations are stunning and the narrator did an incredible job. I will definitely be going back to reread/listen to this for years to come.
