My thoughts: What a book!!!! This one should not be forgotten when Cybils comes around again next year. I love the writing. It is beautiful and amazing. The story itself is compelling; the details are fascinating.

This book was such a gem. It's historical fiction, yes, but so much of it is just plain authentically historical, with some fictional bits. So if you are going into this expecting a fairytale, this isn't one. In fact, the protagonist is a real person, an author in fact. But the fictional and fairytale bits brought the story together so well for me, and made it so appealing! This book left me with a slight unsatisfactory feeling. Although the writing was strong and it contained a lot of interest, it pales substantially when compared to Sajer's 'the Forgotten Soldier' opus. Written in a diary format, the book starts strongly but I was left feeling that something didn't quite add up, and I can't really explain what. Whilst Sajer's book does not even attempt to cover the political side or the atrocities both the Axis and Russians committed, this one goes to great pains to point out how evil the Russians were, and rarely portrays any Wehrmacht soldier in a negative light, bar the very rare bad apple. The SS remain the only German villains and even that is conveniently left woolly. I also was put off by the art, depicting a fairly prominent swastika, perhaps designed for a certain subset of readers who this will no doubt appeal to. It's not something you will want to be seen with in public, that's for sure. Callahan, Gwen. "The 2021 Awards Presentation Video with Kelly Maroney! – Portland Horror Film Festival" . Retrieved January 24, 2023. The story is about a man in his twenties/thirties, a man who makes a difficult decision to leave his wife and child in England, and come to Russia. There is a romance between Arthur and Evgenia (Trotsky's secretary). Usually I don't like the extramarital affairs thing, but it was obvious that Arthur never loved his wife, but really loved Evgenia. I don't know how feelings were in the real story, but I liked how the author brought about the romance in this book. Romance was very small in this book, so don't worry if you're not really a romance person.

Luny perhaps was sweeter before the kidnapping, but currently she's grown a violent persona wanting Rinny to experience the pain she's inflicted onto her. Her and Copper have a mini rivalry going on during the time she was alive with Copper's pacifism and Luny's vengeful bloodthirstiness contrasting each other. Despite her viciousness, she still feels fear of how easy and fragile a malino spirit is to be easily ripped apart. Blood Red Snow White is a fictionalized biography of the writer Arthur Ransome during his extended stay in Russia. However, it is not like any other biography you are likely to read: part fairytale, part spy story, part romance we do not only follow Arthur Ransome, writer, journalist and potential spy but also the fate of the Russian bear in its rebellion against the regime of the Tsar. Both sides seek to use Arthur to gather and relay information for their own purposes . . . and both grow to suspect him of being a double agent. Arthur wants only to elope far from conflict with his beloved, but her Russian ties make leaving the country nearly impossible. And the more Arthur resists becoming a pawn, the more entrenched in the game he seems to become. The second story is One Night in Moscow, which follows Arthur during his years in Russia and his shifting role from journalist to, perhaps, a communist. His own loyalty is a mystery to himself, as he is torn between siding with the Red Bolsheviks and the White Tsarists. He meets and falls in love with Evgenia, a Russian woman who is a secretary for Trotsky, one of the Bolsheviks. Arthur's countrymen begin to question his true loyalty.
