An easily readable story with classic fairytale twists and turns. However if you are looking for depth and realistic characters step away from the Nightingale Floor.
The characters are predictable and largely boring making them hard to warm to. You wont find any good female characters here either; they are the usual shy and retiring types. I did find the idea of the Nightingale Floor to be intriguing but was disappointed to find that this was not in fact the authors own creation and I think this showed in Hearn’s lack of explanation into how the floor was made and put together, which is a little annoying considering it is the title of the book.
Predictable, simplistic and stale, needless to say I will not be tempting to cross the Nightingale Floor to reach for the sequels.
