A Sorceress Comes to Call by T. Kingfisher is a delightful reimagining of the Brothers Grimm tale “Goose Girl,” showcasing Kingfisher’s remarkable talent for breathing new life into classic stories. Her ability to transform a well-known fairy tale into something fresh and engaging is truly impressive.
Although the first third of the book felt a bit slow, it quickly gains momentum, leading to an incredibly satisfying conclusion that would do the Brothers Grimm proud. Despite the initial pacing issues, the story’s charm and creativity made it an enjoyable read overall. Had the beginning been as strong as the rest, this would have been a solid 5-star experience.
