The Goblin and the Dancer

4.5 stars
What a fun little suspense story, with characters that end up running away with your heart and events that make you laugh aloud.

It took a couple chapters to get off the ground, so not a full five stars from me, but it was a really fun story and the kraken scenes in particular were nail-biters! Wow. I think it's the first time I've read a story with a kraken of this sort!

I'm not familiar with the original tale of the tin soldier which it is based on, but I enjoyed the story and the gentle romance as well. Overall, it made me think of a classic Disney movie.

Content:
Magic–none; special abilities presented as natural talents
Triggers–largely underground; a couple fight scenes and a kraken
