Wars may end. But vengeance is forever. Roudette's story was a simple one. A red cape. A wolf. A hunter. Her mother told her she would be safe, so long as she kept to the path. But sometimes the path leads to dark places. Roudette is the hunter now, an assassin known throughout the world as the Lady of the Red Hood. Her mission will take her to the country of Arathea and an ancient fairy threat. At the heart of the conflict between humans and fairies stands the woman Roudette has been hired to kill, the only human ever to have fought the Lady of the Red Hood and survived-the princess known as Sleeping Beauty.

This was a very Talia-oriented storyline, which made me a very happy camper as she is my favorite character. Some parts dragged, but no more than in the previous books. I absolutely love these characters. Seeing Talia happy and in love (*gasp*) is such a refreshing change!
The only thing I hate more than the sensation of being stalked by heavy-handed religious criticism is the moment when it jumps out from behind a hedge and smacks me upside the head with a sledgehammer.
You have many Princesses in literature and movies. There's Princess Leia who got to shot people; there's Belle who got a library; there's Princess Moonbeam, who got to (okay, I can't remember what Moonbeam got, but she got something).
