Summary
After years of seeing her sisters suffer at the hands of an abusive prince, Marra—the shy, convent-raised, third-born daughter—has finally realized that no one is coming to their rescue. No one, except for Marra herself. Seeking help from a powerful gravewitch, Marra is offered the tools to kill a prince—if she can complete three impossible tasks. But, as is the way in tales of princes, witches, and daughters, the impossible is only the beginning. On her quest, Marra is joined by the gravewitch, a reluctant fairy godmother, a strapping former knight, and a chicken possessed by a demon. Together, the five of them intend to be the hand that closes around the throat of the prince and frees Marra's family and their kingdom from its tyrannous ruler at last.

A dark fairytale esque quest
This a contender for my fav book of the year !
This was an amazingly dark and weird fairytale that struck the right chords with me. I loved how it took all the well used fairy tale tropes and twisted them, making them more palatable for a modern audience. I also loved its discussion of Domestic Abuse and the cyclical nature of it. Overall just a wonderful book ! After a small blip from Kingfisher, theyve given me two absolutely fantastic reads.

She’s got a demon in her!
Fabulous book. I was a bit sceptical at first but after a couple of chapters, the story really took off, especially when the chicken is introduced (no spoilers). First book I’ve read in a while that I would love to illustrate!

Really great read
Great story, characters, plot and performance. Thoroughly enjoyed it. I guess it could be called a young adult book but I’m 50 and still loved it

A superb audiobook
Brilliant. The 2023 Hugo Award for best novel is thoroughly deserved. A clever and original story. Marvellous characters. Excellent narration. All in all a superb audiobook. (Michael).

Great story
lots of twists and turns, great and colourful writing style. However, not sure why everyone is raving about the chicken who didn't do much. The dog was a more significant character.

Beautifully read tale of relatable characters
I loved this book. Beautifully read, with relatable fantasy characters- including older women who are flawed in relatable ways .
