Review:

"Long has created a delicious and wonderfully romantic meld of several legends and fairy tales, including elements of A Midsummer Night's Dream and the Ballad Tam Lin, with plenty of action mixed in. Lyrical prose, along with highly imaginative and descriptive phrasing, makes the forest setting - and its creatures and people - immediately present and sparked with magic."
