Title: Birdwing
Review: I love retellings of classic tales; I thought Birdwing had an extremely interesting premise. However, I found the construction of the plot to be rather shoddy. Too many twists were thrown in with no clues except cryptic hints by seers that don't impress any reader of the fantasy genre anymore.The characters were forgettable. The only character with much identifiable personality was Horse, who was rather endearing.The writing, for the most part, was mediocre. Ardwin's angst was described, but not particularly felt. He comes off as just another mixed up emo kid who wants everything but not willing to commit to anything.As another reviewer pointed out, this book is definitely NOT appropriate for 6-10 year olds, for sexual references and overall redability. They are small, but definitely not necessary for younger readers.All in all, I'm glad I didn't buy this book at full price. $.50 at a second hand store was a waste of money.
