I completely enjoyed this short story told through the eyes of a young boy who is seeking the truth of his past and finds his family tree is far from normal! Young Jake Grimm discovers his ancestors are the Brothers Grimm, of Grimm Fairy Tales fame and that a curse on the family has left him the last of a long line of 'hunters' who are responsible for keeping humans safe from other-worlders who mean them harm.Written with the attitude of a young teen, complete with the sarcasm, I found this to be very entertaining. I do wish it was longer, as I could envision so much more that could happen!Obviously, I'm a reader, not a TV fanatic! I actually did NOT know the author was one of the writers for a series inspired by this tale(?). I can only say that I, for one think this makes a good read for young adults, especially those who do not realize how fantastic the world of books can be! it's short, fast paced and the main character is a 'real' boy!
