A Sorceress Comes to Call
by T. Kingfisher
dark
mysterious
medium-paced
I've never read the Grimm Tale of Goose Girl but that didn't stop me from enjoying this witchy, Gothic retelling.
Cordelia is 14 years old and she lives with her mother Evangeline who enforces rules like no closed doors and no thinking of your own and when she disobeys, Cordelia is made to be "Obedient". Now her mother sets her sights on marrying a rich man.
The man's sister Hester knows right off that there is something not right with Evangeline. She by and by discovers that Evangeline is a sorceress and so sets about, with Cordelia's help, to take away her magic and the hols she has on her brother.
There are great side characters too in this dark tale that bring a little bit of light.
I'm going to read more of her works, I really enjoyed this book.
