I wanted to like this book so badly. A play on Downton Abbey! It should have been wonderful! Alas, the writing leaves much to be desired, and the dialogue is often stilted. I will say, however, if I was a teen, I would probably be all over this book, because it was a quick read with historical aspects. So it's a two from my opinion, and a four from my teen self.

This book kept me entertained. A chuckler. Good for kids who want a fantasy novel with a touch of horror, with British language.

For kids who love Percy Jackson. They may need some additional knowledge of Norse myths, but otherwise, a very good choice.

I loved this book and it's not just because I love the author! A great story about family, friends, and Poland Spring Water ;)
