T. Kingfisher is back with another quirky and creepy tale, and I am here for it!
Cordelia is a meek young girl desperate to break free of her controlling mother and lead a normal life. Easier said than done when her mother is a sorceress and can use her dark magic to control her daughter's speech and actions. However, when her mother sets her sights on marrying a wealthy squire, his sister, Hester, may prove to be the help Cordelia needs to build up her resistance and the strength of will to break free.
Full of devious magic, fairy tale tropes and a splash of horror, A Sorceress Comes to Call (2024) was a delight to read.
