They hype for this series is seriously unbelievable! Honestly, I need to know the secrets to getting the word out and getting so many people to fall into this book. I was honestly nervous about reading this one, I mean I love a good re-telling, especially of a fairy tale!

This is a great story. The writing is excellent. The characters well developed and I cared about them very much. The plot, though based on Cinderella, is still original and exciting. It is full of action and intrigue with high stakes. There is tragedy and humor too. It ends with an ending that clearly demands a sequel and I am darn glad there is one so I can enjoy this world some more. Just excellent!
