Gah!! This is the 4th book in the All the Queen's Knaves series, each book is a standalone fairytale retelling in the same world but the characters from each of the books haslve made an appearance in the othet stories.
This one was a doozy in length and was a 2 parter, based on East of the Sun West of the Moon (a fairytale I had never heard before)
Features magically blessed sisters and a talking bear, and then the quest begins to find a long lost castle and it's Goblin Queen
This quest had surprises and I thought it was really well executed! I thought I'd figured everything out and I was wrong!
The biggest downfall of this book is that I have to wait for her to write the last one! This has been one of my favourite series!
