This story has spectacular promise.  However it has a lot to be desired as well.  It was as if the author had so many good ideas that she rushed to cram them all into one story.  It moved so quickly and lacked so many details that could have enriched it.  The characters were "2D" so to speak.  They had no dimension which is what makes it possible to become attached to them as well as their story.  Since the story wasn't tangible I couldn't seem to relate to any of the characters or what they were going through.  I taught middle school & high school English and the dialect used by all the characters, except Logan, was stiff and at times "cheesey".  Like I said this story has amazing promise and if good details & character history were incorporated I think it would make a fantastic series.  One last thing that was bothersom was that the author pulled from too many different folk lores and never explained any back ground information to any of them.
