This is another exceptionally deceptive short review of an exceptionally entertaining story. Don’t let the brief blurb turn you off – it’s a long and involved read and well worth the time!
I read another reimagining of the 12 Dancing Princesses not that long ago, set in the Jazz era, and it was a very good and very entertaining. As good as that one was, this was better… It was dark and Gothic and weighty and extremely well-written, with horribly creepy details and marvelous characterization. The sisters were unique and marvelously detailed in their presentation. The World created was wholly fresh and the way the plot and reveals played out was masterful. I will definitely be on the lookout for more from Erin Craig!
