Well, considering I only read it once; don't remember much if anything about it; and never had any inclination to re-read it, it must have been "so-so."

I gave it a 4. I thought it was a good fantasy storie.........until I read LotR.

I gave it a 3. I didn't hate it, I didn't love it, I wouldn't read it again.

There's logic in nonsense.
Give me all the bacon and eggs you have.
I have a lot of affection for this one, because I love fairy tales, and this was his attempt at writing one. And yeah, awesome dragon trophy involved. So love. 5.
Oh yes, the horse story. How could I forget that part? I feel even better about my number, then. This one just wasn't my cup of tea.they, and the story about the horse, were the reason why bears didn't give it a 1.
