Magical realism at it's most beautiful
This book is jam packed with magical realism. The imagery is beautiful, it is constantly surprising, and I couldn't get enough.
There are women who rise from the dead, seals who forge unbreakable bonds with swimming fishermen, Gods, Goddesses, and people borne of fire.
Tasmania is imagined as a fantastical landscape, steeped in beauty and folklore - it's a place I've never been to, but this book certainly piqued my interest. I can honestly say that each chapter is a surprise. I didn't see any of the storyline coming. There's no guessing at what's going to happen - and I loved that unpredictable journey through this book.
If I could give this book more than 5/5, i most certainly would!
Many thanks to ReadersFirst and the publisher for my copy of this beautiful book.

A beautiful movie about love, honour, value of every living creature and importance of nature. Great story, acting, visual effects and animations. Nothing bad can be said about this movie. It is good in every way.

Considering my first STP novel was Night Watch, this was a beautiful introduction to Vimes and Co. It really sat well with him, and had just about ever facet of a good action movie found in a novel.
