The Book of Lost Things by John Connolly
Before Connolly wrote his multi-volume Charlie Parker series, he wrote The Book of Lost Things about David who travels from his home outside of London one night into a land full of fairy tales come true. But the Fairy Tales are all subtly different with the characters all having altered motivations. David must journey through this land of peril, fighting all the monster to reach the king who he hopes will send him back to London.
I feel like I've read similar books before and nothing Connolly does makes this one stand above the rest. But it was nice to see Connolly write in a different genre.

As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm
