Milly Bobby Brown starring fantasy adventure, that put me very much in mind of a modern Dragonheart / Dragonslayer hybrid of a movie, with elements of romance, horror and action adventure going on throughout.

The first half hour or so is maybe a bit slow, and the finale seems almost 'tacked on', but the middle portion (in the cave) is actually enjoyable enough.

Twisted and dark
Deliciously dark and macabre
While this is not my usually fantasy book to pick up, I found myself being drawn into the nightmare unable to look away. The characters, while not very likeable, are interesting, and you do care where their story will end. It's been compared to Goremenghast, which I haven't read so can't compare, but it is well written. It's gothic steampunk, grim, dark fantasy, melancholic tragedy with horror sprinkled on top. I loved it and felt sad I'd finished it, but couldn't wait to get the next in the series.
