The best part about Tress, by far, is the style. It is told like a classic fairy tale and feels like one. I love watching Tress grow as a character and a person, and this world is just so unique and beautiful. And Hoid, as a narrator, was super fun! I enjoyed the tone of this story, and I can’t wait to read it to my kids some day. If you're looking for more hardcore fantasy, this is not it. Otherwise, I would highly recommend it!
