OWCRATE EXCLUSIVE SIGNED EDITION. SEALED. 

From USA Today bestselling author T. Kingfisher comes
A Sorceress Comes to Call-a dark retelling of the Brothers Grimm's Goose Girl, rife with secrets, murder, and forbidden magic. Cordelia knows her mother is ... unusual. Their house doesn't have any doors between rooms-there are no secrets in this house-and her mother doesn't allow Cordelia to have a single friend.
Unless you count Falada, her mother's beautiful white horse. The only time Cordelia feels truly free is on her daily rides with him. But more than simple eccentricity sets her mother apart. Other mothers don't force their daughters to be silent and motionless for hours, sometimes days, on end. Other mothers aren't sorcerers. After a suspicious death in their small town, Cordelia's mother insists they leave in the middle of the night, riding away together on Falada's sturdy back, leaving behind all Cordelia has ever known.

They arrive at the remote country manor of a wealthy older man, the Squire, and his unwed sister, Hester.
Cordelia's mother intends to lure the Squire into marriage, and Cordelia knows this can only be bad news for the bumbling gentleman and his kind, intelligent sister. And indeed Hester sees the way Cordelia shrinks away from her mother. How the young girl sits eerily still at dinner every night. Hester knows that to save her brother from bewitchment and to rescue the terrified Cordelia, she will have to face down a wicked witch of the worst kind.

The High King is the final book in Lloyd Alexander's Chronicles of Prydain, a classic series of fantasy novels. The story follows Taran, a young man who started his journey as an Assistant Pig-Keeper but has grown into a hero, destined to lead his world against the dark forces threatening it. In this climactic conclusion, Taran faces his greatest challenge as he must confront the evil Arawn, the dark lord seeking to enslave the land of Prydain. As Taran rises to the throne and embraces his responsibilities, he must make sacrifices, confront his own fears, and decide what kind of ruler he will be. The novel is filled with themes of courage, friendship, and self-discovery, highlighting the journey from adolescence to maturity. Alexander’s world-building, character development, and exploration of heroism make The High King a fitting and emotionally satisfying conclusion to the saga.
