Tales of the Horns: Part 1: The Berserk Beast
'Tales of the Horns' is set in a world where the legends, myths, heroes and gods of our past are still very much alive. For now at least. As Ragnarök looms, they wait out the end of their days in pockets of reality parallel to our own. Sides are being drawn as many contemplate a rebellion against the oppressive new gods who rule the heavens. Who will fight for Life and who will fight for Death?
Enter Mary Horn. A girl stolen from home to toil beneath the streets in an evil wizard's shop. Corrupted by strange and foul magic, Mary must win her freedom before she herself is turned into a monster and uncover her true destiny before the end of the world.

What a ride! A well-paced plot, a cast of colourful characters, and a host of exciting magical locations. I particularly enjoyed the the settings- Pennysworth and Olde London were vividly constructed!
The style is charmingly whimsical, at times dark, at others light-hearted and fun.
Not having read much fantasy before, I found the mythical references a bit of a challenge, but not so much that it prevented me enjoying the story.
I think readers of young adult fantasy will have a great time with this book! The age bracket on the Amazon page is 11-18, but language seems quite advanced, so I'd probably recommend it to the older readers.
