Leigh Bardugo has mastered every little aspect of what makes a fairy-tale powerful. She forces you to remember how brave you are and how weak you can be. She drags ancient fears to the surface and she throws them at you like stones. Leigh Bardugo knows all about that kind of magic and she shapes as if it is porcelain and she is a potter. This collection of six stories includes three brand-new tales, all of them lavishly illustrated with art that changes with each turn of the page, culminating in six stunning full-spread illustrations as rich in detail as the stories themselves.įrom Goodreads The Language of Thorns original edition, published by Orion Publishing Group September 2017Įvery tale in this collection seems older than it is each one of them has an unusual feeling to it as if every story has been passed around ever since the world was born and words formed something magical. Perfect for new readers and dedicated fans, these tales will transport you to lands both familiar and strange-to a fully realized world of dangerous magic that millions have visited through the novels of the Grishaverse. Travel to a world of dark bargains struck by moonlight, of haunted towns and hungry woods, of talking beasts and gingerbread golems, where a young mermaid’s voice can summon deadly storms and where a river might do a lovestruck boy’s bidding but only for a terrible price. The Language of Thorns by Leigh Bardugo exclusive Fairyloot edition
The Language of Thorns is true to its word: the title promises prickly stories, the kind of tales that are capable of stealing your sleep and keep it as a hostage and it certainly does.
