Jeremy Johnson Johnson is just like any other 14 year old boy except he can hear the voice of Jacob Grimm. Jacob has been dead for many years and is unable to cross over. He has attached himself to Jeremy. He feels there is something evil stalking Jeremy and the other children of Never Better. Jacob feels the only way to join his brother, Wilhelm, is to protect them.
Far Far Away is narrated by the ghost of Jacob Grimm and is told in the typical Grimm Fairy Tale style, dark and twisted. There are many likeable characters but my favorites were Jeremy and Jacob. Jeremy is a nerd who gets into trouble when a fiery red head named Ginger convinces him to pull a prank. The prank goes horribly wrong and the town turns on them. Jacob is stuffy and tries to keep Jeremy out of trouble and safe. You are drawn into their story right from the start. This has something for everyone a ghost, a love story and magic. If you like a dark and twisted tale then this is for you.
