An ordinary man hides behind duty, predictability and a tiny bit of magical hope. He hopes a miracle will give him permission to grow into himself.

This book is, and will be, a blessing to whomever is lucky enough to stumble across it like i did. Deep gratitude to the creativity and gifts of this author. The love of books is so heartfelt.

Even the ill-intentioned scoundrels are well crafted. The characters are so familiar and believable. Everyone is happy even wolf and brutus.

The writing is good, and the pacing is brisk enough to keep the story moving. The author weaves such different personalities, a lot of imagination - beautifully described. Very clever writing style. Predicable but well written into an engaging story.

I am seriously confused by all the highly rated reviews. Not for me. Not real. Additionally, oriana is a weird and unrelatable character.
