Snow White & The 7 Samurai - Tom Holt

http://www.tom-holt.com/snowwhite.htm

Another very clever book from Tom Holt. Written in 1999, the computing references are very dated, but the fairyland stuff is great.

"Gerroff! You're squashing my ears!"

The wolf eased off the pressure slightly, and the gossamer shadow under its claws stopped squirming. "Well now," the wolf growled softly, "what a surprise. And what's an elf doing in these parts?".

The elf spat. "That's Indigenous Fairylander to you, Fido".

Just loses momentum toward the end, or it would have made a nine.

Rated 8/10
