Über diesen Titel

From Hugo, Nebula, and Locus award-winning author T. Kingfisher comes an original and subversive fantasy adventure.

This isn't the kind of fairytale where the princess marries a prince.
It's the one where she kills him.


Marra never wanted to be a hero.

As the shy, convent-raised, third-born daughter, she escaped the traditional fate of princesses, to be married away for the sake of an uncaring throne. But her sister wasn’t so fortunate—and after years of silence, Marra is done watching her suffer at the hands of a powerful and abusive prince.

Seeking help for her rescue mission, Marra is offered the tools she needs, but only if she can complete three seemingly impossible tasks:

—build a dog of bones
—sew a cloak of nettles
—capture moonlight in a jar

But, as is the way in tales of princes and witches, doing the impossible is only the beginning.

Hero or not—now joined by a disgraced ex-knight, a reluctant fairy godmother, an enigmatic gravewitch and her fowl familiar—Marra might finally have the courage to save her sister, and topple a throne.

"Nettle & Bone is the kind of book that immediately feels like an old friend. Fairytale mythic resonance meets homey pragmatism in this utterly delightful story. It's creepy, funny, heartfelt, and full of fantastic characters I absolutely loved!” —Melissa Caruso, author of The Tethered Mage

While I did like the speaker, the story, the characters and the writing a lot, there were situations that felt a bit fake. I guess it fits into a fairytale, and perhaps this is a bit of a fairytale, but I was expecting a different kind of story. I did enjoy it either way though and thought it was a good read.

Great, different heroine!

Spannende Geschichte , guter Humor , tolle Sprecherin , die Charaktere sind sehr gut ausgearbeitet. Ein bisschen wie Terry Pratchett, insbesondere Tiffany Aching.

Just a nice bed-time story, well told with great narration. You migh not find something completely new, but the book does not overstay its welcome.

Nice little Story
