Love is not something that George thinks about. So when a neighboring kingdom offers their princess as a bride to ensure peace, he accepts. He understands that he will most likely never be able to love Princess Beatrice, because he can be honest with her. He can't tell her that he has the dreaded animal magic. Or can he confess his secret to the girl who never leaves her hound's side?
The good stuff: There are some good themes in this book, like toloerance, hope and persistance. But you can find that in many (okay, some) other books. What is really good about this book is how different it is.
The not so hot stuff: Nothing really.
Why I like it: This book has a strange writing stlye. And when you've read (or maybe you already have) as many books as I, you know that different is always going on a favorites list. Okay, I take that back. Book awards people seem to make this their policy, and poor decived people like me end up reading a buch of "different" crappy books. A certain element of moral depth and hope must also be encorporated. I wouldn't say that this book has moral depth, but it's an interesting read.
