Title: Other people have done this better
Product review: I was honestly rather disappointed by this book. Yes, it had its moments, but the shallow characterization and objectionable elements overwhelmed them for me. I won't get into the storyline, so as not to spoil it, but any book that has strong hints of sadomasochism doesn't belong under teen fiction, in my opinion. If you want to read a great novel that comes under the heading modern fantasy then pick up Emma Bull's War for the Oaks, a much superior example.
