Fairytales made witches villains. Now they’re taking their story back.
Tibby never thought she’d end up in a prison for witches. She isn’t one, or so she claims. But on her first night at the Grimm Brotherhood’s Reformation Centre, she meets four infamous witches the world has branded wicked. As they share their real stories, Tibby begins to wonder if they’re not so different after all.
When the Brotherhood threatens to erase their memories and their magic, the women stage a daring escape. But freedom isn’t enough. To truly reclaim their power, they must untangle the twisted fairytales written about them, confront the men who tried to silence them, and light a fire that could spark a rebellion. In a world built to turn women against each other, Tibby has to choose: stay quiet and survive, or rise and be remembered.
A witchy fairytale rebellion for fans of Alix E. Harrow, T. Kingfisher, Naomi Novik and Gregory Maguire.

I was really lucky to be granted a review copy. As soon as I started this one, I was hooked. Taylor-Gray has weaved a singular story centred around the central ‘crone’ from the popular fairytales, each playing a key role in this story. And it really works, as they’ve each been oppressed by the Grimm Brotherhood as it exerts its power and control over the 4 kingdoms.
There’s lots going on in the one as our four main characters each battle their own demons and complications. While they’re not angels, they don’t deserve all that the Grimm Brotherhood have done to them. If you’re after a cracking read where older female characters fight the patriarchy, this is for you. There’s also some humour in this one - it had me chuckling in parts and Edwards’ narration is spot on for this one. I really loved it.

the narrator is exactly the right choice for the book, and ensures everyone's voices are recognisable and suit each character.
I flew through the audiobook, it was an easy listen and very entertaining.
Unusual genre for me but fun
