I knew this was a retelling, an alternate history of WWII with a fantasy bent to it, and rather expected a Captain America feel. I was very wrong on that count. Gretel was thoroughly enjoyable as the main villain, and I still picture her in my mind as a young flighty woman who loves to read poetry a...

The sentences didn't flow together and I had to re-read a lot to figure out who was doing what. But then suddenly the writing was as smooth as peanut bu...
