OMG what a wonderful story. I became part of this book. The 13th Tale was a magical journey of words, phrases, sentences that became living characters for me. It will be a long time before I can put this story aside and begin another. Thank you so much for such an amazing experience

Possibly the best!

You need to pay attention to this one! Easy to get lost and lose your way. Lots of layers but fascinating and disturbing at the same time . I enjoyed “once upon a river “ more

A long tale!
