Very cute short story with an interesting take on fairies serving out family debts, different types of dragons and princesses being normal.

- Plot- or character-driven? A mix

Das war ganz süß, aber ich denke, Gail Carriger entfaltet ihre volle Stärke auf wenigstens Novellenlänge!

Whilst I didn't think this short story was as strong as Carriger's longer works, it was a fun, quick read. I liked the humour and thought the tea cup communicators were fantastic!

Absolutely precious. A complete departure from the shared world of her more popular series, this Carriger short story is a new fairy tale that was an absolute delight. Great story for all ages, very clever and funny. Thumbs up for a quick treat of a short story!

A fun take on the idea of a fairy godmother and the fairy tale world. Not Carriger's usual world but still with touches that remind you of the Parasol protectorate humour and world view
