4/4.5 stars.
This doesn't quite get the full 5 stars as I felt there was something from the first book that was missing in this one. The ending also didn't quite tie everything up as I'd hoped. But I did enjoy the twists and turns, the savage undercurrent ect.

You can see the heavy Tolkien influence within this story. It was witty and adventurous and filled with intriguing characters.
3.5/4 stars.
A compelling story highlighting the lengths a parent will go to for their child, in the depths of grief and turmoil.

I received an eARC of this book from the publisher, through NetGalley, in exchange for my honest review.
4.5 stars.
A thrilling collection of reimagined fairy tales that showcase more inclusivity within their characters as well as twisting the stories on their heads.
I really appreciate that excerpts from the original stories are included in the book so that readers can see where inspiration was taken, and where the stories have evolved.
An excellent mixture of both heart warming and dark retellings.
