From bestselling author T. Kingfisher comes an original, subversive fairytale about 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.
Meet Toadling. On the day of her birth, she was stolen from her family by the fairies, but she grew up safe and loved in the warm waters of faerieland. Once an adult though, the fae ask a favor of Toadling: return to the human world and offer a blessing of protection to a newborn child. Simple, right?
If only.
Centuries later, a knight approaches a towering wall of brambles, where the thorns are as thick as your arm and as sharp as swords. He's heard there's a curse here that needs breaking, but it's a curse Toadling will do anything to uphold...©2023 Ursula Vernon (P)2023 W. F.

This book was an interesting one. I enjoyed it, although i didn’t fully relate to any of the characters, the setting and world building was done really well. A good fantasy tale with a slight edge to it.

An interesting take on a classic fairytale
