Another gem hidden amongst a multitude of choice. Not sure what the target audience is,over 10s, YA and adults will probably find it an enjoyable read. It may be slightly scary for younger, but then again Darren Shan caters to the young and those books are very scary. Young Jacob Grimm finds out that he is one of the last living descendants of the Brothers Grimm. That knowledge takes him homeward where he finds that he has to fulfill the legacy of an ancient curse. It is a fast paced story with plenty of action. I think it would make a great TV series or film, as it runs along similar lines of Once upon a time, which has become very popular in the US. My only complaint is that it wasn't long enough. The writer could have easily made a full length novel out of the material he created. So my next question would be, where is the next part?
