I could not wait to read this book as I have always been a fan of fairytales and it did not disappoint. It is full of suspense, intrigue and interesting characters. My only criticism is that I would have liked even more references to little known tales and their magical items etc. All in all I thoroughly enjoyed the book and if only such a place with all its items really existed!
