Rather dry; perhaps I would have enjoyed it more reading it at a different time. Then again, perhaps not. There were the bones of a good, if traditional, story here, though, that reminded me of InuYasha and the tale of Orpheus, and more commentary on relationships and the human condition than it may appear at first glance.
