JUNIPER & THORN - AVA REID KARTONIERT (TB)

''A tale of fear and survival  hope and yearning and defiance  in timelessly elegant prose. It
will enchant you  break your heart  and chill you to the very marrow.' Samantha Shannon on The
Wolf and the Woodsman From the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Wolf and the Woodsman
comes a gothic retelling of The Juniper Tree  where a young witch seeks to discover her
identity and escape the domination of her abusive wizard father. Perfect for fans of Angela
Carter  Catherynne M. Valente and Shirley Jackson _________________________________ A gruesome
curse. A city in upheaval. A monster with unquenchable appetites. Marlinchen and her sisters
are the last true witches in a city shifting from magic to industry. Viewed as little more than
tourist traps  they spend their days treating clients with archaic remedies and nostalgic charm
while attempting to placate their tyrannical  xenophobic wizard father  who keeps his daughters
locked away in their crumbling home. But at night  they sneak out to revel in the city's
thrills  particularly the recently established ballet theatre  where Marlinchen meets a dancer
who quickly captures her heart. But as their late-night trysts grow more fervent and frequent 
so does the threat of her father's rage. And while their city flourishes  a monster lurks in
its midst  borne of intolerance and resentment and suffused with old-world power. Sunday Times
bestseller  June 2022 (w c 27th June 2022)
