Overview

When the witch Baba Yaga walks her house into the backyard, eleven-year-old Summer enters into a bargain for her heart’s desire. Her search will take her to the strange, surreal world of Orcus, where birds talk, women change their shape, and frogs sometimes grow on trees. But underneath the whimsy of Orcus lies a persistent darkness, and Summer finds herself hunted by the monstrous Houndbreaker, who serves the distant, mysterious Queen-in-Chains…

“It’s Wes Craven meets L. Frank Baum, or Narnia for those of us who thought Narnia smiled without showing enough of its teeth.” ~KB Spangler, Digital Divide

About the Author

About The Author
T. Kingfisher shares a remarkable resemblance (and frequently identical spatial coordinates) with Nebula and Hugo Award winning author and illustrator Ursula Vernon. Ms. Kingfisher is best known for her innovative fairy tale retellings, short stories, romance and horror novels, and the 2021 Locus Award winning young adult novel A Wizard's Guide to Defensive Baking. Ms. Vernon is best known for her acclaimed children's book series' Dragonbreath and Hamster Princess, more award winning short stories, the young adult novel Castle Hangnail, and the Hugo Award winning graphic novel Digger. Ms. Kingfisher lives in North Carolina with her husband, her garden, and their many disobedient pets. She is fond of both wombats and sushi, but not in the same way, and has an unhealthy obsession with mulch.
