I'd never read Jim Hines before but I was in a mood for something light, so I picked this up expecting some kind of zany, "Guardians of the Galaxy" witty space romp. What I got was a five star SF read. This is a funny, fast-paced, witty and original novel that also has a clever and quite serious p...
From the blurb: "In the world war against the Elf King, what is the cost of victory ... a dryad vigilante in Tuscon fights an enemy more dangerous than any other: her own nature ... a grim look at the true cost of Sleeping Beauty's curse.

But, fortunately, it was listed in the Recom...
