If you haven't read 'Cloaked', you are missing out!! I finished it this morning and have really enjoyed it! This is an absolutely brilliant book, the characters are developed extremely well and the combination of different fairy tales, instead of just one, is genius!
The story is about a boy called Johnny, who works in his family business as a shoe repairer or clobber. His dad left when he was very young and he lives with his mum. The shoe repair shop is situated in a posh hotel in Miami, Florida. One day, a princess arrives and Johnny is thrown in at deep end. She sends him off on a quest and if he completes it he will receive the princess's hand in marriage. A lot for a 16 year old to think about!
Cloaked is a incredible book although I would put a rough age guideline on 13 and above. If you decide to consider reading it you will not regret it!
