The allusions to other beloved children's fantasy books are plentiful and obvious, but handled so well that they do not detract from the story. Chosen ones and mysterious keys to magical doors that lead to fantasy worlds are so plentiful I don't have to give you any examples. The frozen land of Sylver with its talking animals is obviously Narnia, while the Snow Queen and Puss in Boots make appearances. There are more references, but I won't list them all so you can be surprised when you read it. It's not 'done' or derivative, however; it just feels familiar in the best way.
This book was so good! I'm definitely going to get my hands on everything Tone Almhjell writes. I think The Twistrose Key is the first in a series, and I am so excited to read the rest!… (altro)
