Synopsis

Torvi and Morgunn must learn to survive on their own after a devastating plague sweeps through their steading. Upon
hearing rumors of Uther—a flame-loving Fremish wolf-priest—and her band of desperate, starving girls who move
hungrily through Vorseland searching for recruits, they decide to leave their home and hunt down a mythical sword
lost in the depths of the Green Wild Forest. If found and pulled from the stone tree, the sword could catapult the first
woman to a throne in generations.

But when Uther captures Morgunn, Torvi must embark on a quest to save her sister instead, taking with her a
shaven-skulled druid and a band of roaming Elsh artists called the Butcher Bards. Along the way, Torvi faces brutal,
bone-grinding Salvation monks, barters with a handsome young wizard, attends a magical Night Market, and seeks
a prophecy from an eerie Pig Witch. The blood bond between sisters runs deep, and Torvi will save Morgunn—or
die trying.

In this stand-alone companion to the critically acclaimed fantasy The Boneless Mercies, readers will thrill at
Tucholke’s signature sumptuous writing, a complex sisterhood, and a heartbroken heroine who discovers that her
story is grander and wilder than she ever imagined.

It can even be about the universe of this book, for all I care.......more

Goodreads review by Hannah

April Genevieve Tucholke can always be counted on for lyricism and sensory writing, but this book lacks the gravity of its predecessor. It’s an imaginative retelling of the Arthurian legend, but it often spirals into tangential legends and mostly sees its characters sitting fireside, smoking pipes a......more

Goodreads review by Jasmine

This is my first read from the author. It's a bit of getting used to because the character and location names are so foreign to me though Pig Witch and its living situation is funny. This story relive the past often, like how Torvi met Viggo, how the Butcher Bard came to town, wolf-priest came to th......more
