AudioFile Magazine
This story, which is reminiscent of the classic EAST OF THE SUN AND WEST OF THE MOON, is set in Norway. It's a love story focusing on endurance and ethics. Against a backdrop of superstition and mystery, two women and two men portray the four main characters, whose experiences detail uncertainty, perseverance, and hope. Each narration effectively changes the mood as the story evolves. Stand-out performances include Lee Adams, who gives the Troll Queen's gravelly voice an edge of threat and desperation, and Robertson Dean, who succeeds in making White Bear, the bear/man, sound both weathered by decades of enchantment and a feasible love interest.

Readers with a taste for fantasy and folklore will embrace Pattou's (Hero's Song)
lushly rendered retelling of "East of the Sun and West of the Moon." In an old Norwegian village, a highly superstitious mother tries to protect her youngest child, Rose, from a dire prophecy; as the various characters take turns narrating the story, it is readily apparent that no one else takes the superstitions seriously. Nevertheless, Rose is "different" in many ways, from her purple eyes to her passion for weaving, which leads her to make a cloak patterned with a "wind rose" (a mapmaker's symbol indicating the direction of the winds)She also seems to attract the attention of a white bear, and when the bear finally approaches her, offering to make her poor family prosper and to restore her ill sister's health if Rose will come away with him, she finds the offer impossible to resist. Pattou unfolds her story slowly and carefully, luring readers across many miles with the brave and determined Rose. Handsomely evoking a landscape filled with castles, trolls, shamans and spellbound princes, the story will exercise its audience's imagination. Ages 12-up.
