Summary: Tristran Thorn falls in love with the prettiest girl in town and makes her a foolish promise: he says that he'll go find the falling star they both watched streak across the night sky. She says she'll marry him if he finds it, so he sets off, leaving his home of Wall, and heads out into the perilous land of faerie, where not everything is what it appears. (amazon)
Best Bit: Yvaine is very snarky, for a fallen star.
Quick Review: I love this book a lot. So much in fact that I first bought this version, then tracked down the illustrated version, then actually spent some money on a signed ARC copy. So that's really a lot of love.
Final Grade: A
