Juniper & Thorn (Hardback)

'In this baroque Grimm retelling, Reid proves again that theirs is a powerful and essential voice. Through Marlinchen - a layered and unforgettable heroine, brought to life with immense compassion - she tells a tale of fear and survival, hope and yearning and defiance, in timelessly elegant prose. It will enchant you, break your heart, and chill you to the very marrow.' - Samantha Shannon, author of The Priory of the Orange Tree

'Utterly astonishing. This masterful, complex retelling conjures the pure horror of powerlessness as modernity crashes into tradition, and bodies are transformed and consumed. Juniper & Thorn is the dark fairytale brought to perfection: terrible, and true, and full of teeth.' - Shelley Parker-Chan, author of She Who Became the Sun

'A gothic masterpiece. Reid weaves threads of unsettling horror and abuse with astonishing empathy.' - Kat Dunn, author of Dangerous Remedy

'Reid expertly weaves a dark and delightful tale that packs a sting. Love, betrayal, and a heroine for our time. I absolutely loved this novel.' - T. L. Huchu, author of The Library of the Dead

'Ava Reid's spellbinding prose will draw you deep into this dark fantasy about three gifted sisters who are trapped by the magic of their wizard father. Thrumming with feminist power, and riveting in its worldbuilding, Juniper & Thorn is an unforgettable tale.' - Ausma Zehanat Khan, author of The Bladebone
