( ) I liked book one better, but this was still a delightful follow-up. This is Saturday's story, and based off of Baba Yaga (I don't know the exact original story, but it's the one Bony-Legs is based off of). The book begins with Saturday accidentally creating an ocean at her family's doorstep, bringing her sister Thursday. She then ends up kidnapped by a giant raven and deposited in the mountain of a demon witch. I was a bit put off by the cover because Saturday, as it was made clear in the first book, eschews dresses and would have rather been a boy than a girl. But as with book one, the cover does not do the book justice. It's fairly subversive about gender, having both Saturday and Peregrine playing gender-fluid roles. There's also the addition of the utterly delightful Betwixt, the shapeshifting chimera. This book ends with the beginning of a larger quest, and a larger story that I'm eagerly looking forward to reading. Ready to start Dearest, and then the Trix books. And hoping that I won't have long to wait for book four... keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

HTML: Rough-and-tumble Saturday Woodcutter thinks she's the only one of her sisters without any magic??until the day she accidentally conjures an ocean in the backyard. With her sword in tow, Saturday sets sail on a pirate ship, only to find herself kidnapped and whisked off to the top of the world. Is Saturday powerful enough to kill the mountain witch who holds her captive and save the world from sure destruction? And, as she wonders grumpily, "Did romance have to be part of the adventure?" As in Enchanted, readers will revel in the fragments of fairy tales that embellish this action-packed story of adventure and, yes, romance. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
