A wonderful re-telling of Sleeping Beauty. This was my first Orson Scott Card novel and although I'm not usually a big fantasy fan, this one was terrific. The ancient Ukraine is brought to life and skillfully contrasted with contemporary America and, thank goodness! there's an equal partnership between the hero and heroine, but also, thankfully, it takes them both a great deal of courage and a tremendous leap of faith on both sides to make it come together. In other words, although it's a fantasy the characters are believable and like all good fairy tales it has a happy ending.
