This delightful take on a twisted fairytale starts off with the familiar Rapunzel style opening, then veers into uncharted territory when our protagonist, Giselle, joins a wild west show touring Austria.

Lighthearted and full of surprises, Mercedes Lackey the delivers another fun tale.

Leniverse Oh, a new one! From last year, I see. I enjoy her elemental masters series. And her "thousand kingdoms" fairytale retellings too. 7y

SpeculativeFemale I enjoy most of what she writes. It is, in my other half's terminology, my book candy: not much substance, just sugary and pleasant. 7y

Leniverse Sorry, "Five hundred kingdoms". And yes, total book candy! I devoured the Valdemar books and Diana Tregarde books in my teens. ? The stuff she wrote with James Mallory had more substance, less formulaic. Right proper epic fantasy that was. Well, still book candy. 7y

SpeculativeFemale The Diana Tregarde books are the one thing she's done that I haven't tried yet. 7y
