Did I enjoy this book: I did enjoy this book. As with Mr. Bertauski’s other books that I have read, they are not my “usual” genre but I wouldn’t miss them. This one was no different –  a fun, interesting, different read that had me hooked.This series of books is fascinating. It gives us an alternate take on the men — legends — we know. I’m not sure how Mr. Bertauski came up with this world of elven, Claus, Jack, and their advances and influences on Christmas but it is a wonderful world that makes you think. It is a world that is easy to get lost in.This is a tough review to write because I really don’t want to give anything away. Jack is a sad little man. I felt for him. Mr. Frost is a kind man who wants to change the course of things. Freeda is not a favorite. Templeton is surly but has a purpose, one I did not see coming. Sura and Joe were interesting, unexpected additions to this world. If I go on about all that is revealed and done, then I will spoil the book.So, I will leave it at this: It’s a good read. Try it.Would I recommend it: I would recommend this book, especially if you read Claus: Legend of the Fat Man.Will I read it again: I don’t think so. But I definitely want to read the rest of the Claus series.(I received a copy of this book for review purposes.)
