    Everyone fucking died.

    It's alright, I guess, it keeps you reading long enough to want to know more and see the characters turn their life around or get some justice or something, but then they just die. And the most infuriating part is that they're useless deaths. Well, except the ogre's I guess.

    Also, some things just don't connect and others are quite ridiculous. Perhaps more than a fairytale it depicts real life more; everyone's an arrogant idiot and nobody gets any justice.

    Bottom line: it has some funny quotes.
