Review by: DT Ward on April 05, 2012 :
very short flashes of violent goodness. I agree with the previous reviewer, I would like to read a longer novel maybe tying all these modern day fairy tales together.

Quick, excellent read. It draws you in right from the start and keeps your attention. My only complaint is that it's too short! I want to know about the girls in the closet and where Veronica goes next! I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for more from this author.

Reading this story, I felt like I was dropped in on an exciting scene from an action movie. It starts quick, and then gets wild as the mayhem kicks in. And like the tip of an iceberg, you get the feeling there's a complex back-story going on behind all of this action. Like a teaser for a film, it whetted my appetite. I love what's here, and I want to see Veronica Grim kick ass in a novel-length story.

It's clear that this author knows how to use words to paint images in our minds. Well done.
