Helpful Score: 3

This is not one of Ms. Hamilton's better works. You can see that she wrote this book in the early stage of her career. The character developement isn't complex and i never felt like i could connect to the story or the characters at all. The setting of the world is very dark, gothic and hopeless. But that is just as it is suppose to be. The book starts out rather confusing, especially if you're not familiar with the Ravenloft setting. Overall i didn't really enjoyed it and i don't understand the hype around this book, even if Ms. Hamilton is rather famous nowadays. I would give it a 2 out of 5.
