"Expertly blending humor with folkloric horror, this incredibly satisfying fantasy will delight Kingfisher's fans and newcomers alike."-Publishers Weekly, STARRED review

"This is another one of Kingfisher's marvelous works (like the Hugo-winning Nettle & Bone) that takes elements of fairy tales, myths, and legends and blends them into a story that feels both familiar and new at the same time while subtly weaving a novel where women play the parts that men traditionally filled. . . . Highly recommended for readers who enjoy reimagined legends."-Library Journal, STARRED review
