Publisher's Summary

Bryony and her sisters have come down in the world. Their merchant father died trying to reclaim his fortune and left them to eke out a living in a village far from their home in the city. But when Bryony is caught in a snowstorm and takes refuge in an abandoned manor, she stumbles into a house full of dark enchantments. Is the Beast that lives there her captor or a fellow prisoner? Is the house her enemy or her ally? And why are roses blooming out of season in the courtyard? Armed only with gardening shears and her wits, Bryony must untangle the secrets of the house before she - or the Beast - are swallowed by them.

Poor Ending

Good performances and enjoyable to listen to. Unfortunately it has a very disappointing ending (unless you’re into bestiality).

Great Retelling

I have read a lot of Beauty and the Beast retellings and this ranks among the best!

I thought the narrator was quite good but I am fairly sure this is not her natural accent. It was really well done but there was just an air of affectation that threw me out of the story sometimes.

Fun reimagining of Beauty and the Beast

I love T. Kingfisher and her stories. I love how the heroines are funny, strong, and so normal.
