I'm still in the process of letting the story sink in. So maybe I'll change this bit later on.
I think The Twisted Tree is well written and the slowly growing tension and feeling of darkness looming made it creep in to you. Not sure if I'm phrasing that right, but there it is ;)
I've read in another review about the lack of worldbuilding. I disagree, I didn't need more information about their surroundings. And the small world everything played in enhanced the gloomy feel to everything.
I've read City of Ghosts recently and I guess that book and this one give the same kind of vibe. And both POV learn so much about themselves and their strength. Totally different stories, but it was just a feeling I got while reading this one. And I have to say, I like these kind of stories :)
Only one thing, I would love to have seen a few more pages ;) It didn't felt rushed or anything, just think I'd really liked to have read a bit more about 'after'.
