A review by whatsmacksaid
A Sorceress Comes to Call by T. Kingfisher

adventurous dark emotional hopeful tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes

5.0

Very, very dark--particularly the beginning, when we see how Cordelia lives with her mother--but equally excellent. This felt like the natural convergence between the author's fairytale and horror novels.

Graphic: Animal death, Child abuse, Death, Emotional abuse, Gore, Panic attacks/disorders, Physical abuse, Violence, Death of parent, and Murder

Moderate: Injury/Injury detail

The animal death is not technically an animal because

it's actually a demon in the shape of a horse, and it comes back headless and with eight legs instead of four

. And the animal cruelty is actually

demon-on-animal cruelty
