From the USA Today bestselling author comes an original, subversive fairytale about a kind-hearted, toad-shaped heroine, a gentle knight, and a mission gone completely sideways, perfect for fans of Alix E. Harrow and Katharine Arden.

There is a princess trapped in a tower. This is not her story.

Meet Toadling. On the day of her birth, she was stolen from her family by the fairies, but she grew up safe and loved in the warm waters of faerieland. Once an adult, though, the fae ask a favor of Toadling: return to the human world and offer a blessing of protection to a newborn child. Simple, right? If only.

Centuries later, a knight approaches a towering wall of brambles, where the thorns are as thick as your arm and as sharp as swords. He has heard there is a curse here that needs breaking, but it is a curse that Toadling will do anything to uphold.

The knight, a brave and noble soul, sets out on a perilous journey to find the child in need of protection. Along the way, he encounters many challenges, including treacherous terrain, fierce monsters, and his own doubts and fears. But he is determined to fulfill his mission and save the child from the curse that haunts him.

As the knight draws closer to his destination, he discovers that the child he is seeking is not just any child, but a princess. The princess has been cursed by a wicked witch, and her fate is tied to the fate of the kingdom. The knight must brave the witch's wrath and find a way to break the curse before it is too late.

In the end, the knight succeeds in his mission, and the princess is saved from the curse. The kingdom is restored to peace, and the knight is hailed as a hero. Toadling, though, is not content to rest on her laurels. She knows that there are still many more challenges and adventures ahead, and she is ready to face them with courage and determination.

The story of Toadling is a testament to the power of kindness, bravery, and determination. It reminds us that even in the darkest of times, there is always hope for a brighter future. And it reminds us that even the smallest and most unlikely heroes can make a difference in the world.
