T. Kingfisher is a master at creating tales that feel both familiar and fresh. A great, atmospheric novella that warms your heart to these imperfect characters. There is depth in these characters that is subtle and stays with you a long time. I want more!

Another wonderful tale from Kingfisher. I’ve followed her work in one form or another for around 15 years at this point and she still finds ways to surprise and entertain me.
