Nettle & Bone by T. Kingfisher6/29/2023 ![]() ![]() The only thing keeping those nations from conquering the small country is a marriage between their princess and the prince of the northern kingdom. This is the story of Marra, who is the third-born princess of a small nation which sits in between two larger nations. 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. On her quest, Marra is joined by the gravewitch, a reluctant fairy godmother, a strapping former knight, and a chicken possessed by a demon. But, as is the way in tales of princes, witches, and daughters, the impossible is only the beginning. ![]() Seeking help from a powerful gravewitch, Marra is offered the tools to kill a prince-if she can complete three impossible tasks. ![]() So thanks to the author, as well as Tor via NetGalley for the review copy!Īfter 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. I will wax poetic about the world of the White Rat at any small (or sometimes nonexistent) opportunity, and so it is hardly surprising that I requested this book as soon as I saw it. It’s no secret to anyone who has known me very long how much I love the work of T. ![]()
