It went in directions I didn't figure it would, which is a good thing. It got wilder than I imagined it could've. It started out on one track and morphed into another, and it did it smoothly. I was into the story, and then as it progressed, it got stranger but without jarring me as a reader.

It needs to be a movie, and I mean for serious.

This book, which sells itself as a “folk horror fairy tale” is a......more
