The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world. It had plenty of gold, a king with the finest moustache you could possibly imagine, and butchers, bakers, and cheesemongers whose exquisite foods made a person dance with delight when they ate them. Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.

Family matters
As is usual with Lucinda Riley's novels, it's great story telling. We have strong female characters, a family history that reaches back about 100 years, and somehow, history seems to repeat itself. Or does it?
Grania has some decisions to make, but emotionally, she isn't really in a fit state to make the right ones. It doesn't help that her mum keeps warning her, but takes much too long to tell her why she shouldn't do what she does. What about Aurora and her dad -- do they have sinister motives?
Grania will find out, even to the point of no return.
Gerri Halligan as narrator was excellent. I had all the various characters right before my inner eye, and having their voices in my head made the story even more compelling.
