A Sorceress Comes to Call is a dark fantasy novel by T. Kingfisher that reimagines the Brothers Grimm's The Goose Girl. The story follows Cordelia, whose life is anything but normal because her mother is an evil sorceress. When Cordelia's mother moves the family into the home of a wealthy Squire and his sister, Hester, Cordelia knows that the pair are to be her mother's next victims. However, Cordelia feels at home with the Squire and Hester, and must decide whether to face her mother or protect the people who have become like family to her. The book is full of secrets, murder, and forbidden magic, and some say it has a beautiful writing style and well-developed characters. Others praise Kingfisher's inventive fantasy and descriptive narrative.
