From USA Today bestselling author T. Kingfisher, Thornhedge is the tale of a kind-hearted, toad-shaped heroine, a gentle knight, and a mission gone completely sideways.

There's a princess trapped in a tower. This isn't her story.

This was a really sweet fairytale-y tale. Pretty short, felt like the relationship to its inspirations was different enough to not feel like a ‚retelling‘ to me, nice descriptive prose, two very clear delightful characters. The twists are for the most part pretty guessable ahead of when they‘re revealed, but the writing and emotional story were nice enough for me to not really mind. I would have read more of this, but it makes sense for it to end when it did! I think the main character will stick around in my head for a while.

Ein schönes Märchen aus einer leicht anderen Perspektive

Toadling ist unsere Protagonistin, scheinbar eine Fee, die nahe eines Turms lebt und in Angst lebt, dass jemand den Turm entdecken und die "Jungfrau in Nöten" retten will.

Das Buch erzählt rasch und auf wenigen Seiten die Hintergründe von Toadling, eines Königreiches, was hier einst stand und eine herzerwärmende Geschichte, um "den Ritter", der einen Fluch lösen möchte.

Kurzweilig, spannend, schön geschrieben und teilweise echt lustig.
