Starve Acre - Andrew Michael Hurley







Disclaimer: I am not afraid to admit that I had to reach for the dictionary a couple of times during the progress of this book.

This is a tale, within a tale. A parallel, with several hundred years between them. The constant, Jack and the Hare.

The setting, is God's own country, Yorkshire, England.

The setting, is described and the tale told, in such a way that you are almost there with the characters. I suppose it also helped that I know the area a little.

Intertwined with almost a 50/50 split between the two and the interlinking that takes part, progressing together at a considerable rate.

The only drawback, the ending. Obscure.

Rating: 4.1/5.0

Status: Completed.
