More about Greenteeth…

 

'A CHARMINGLY MONSTROUS DEBUT' T. Kingfisher, author of Nettle and Bone

Narrated by a lake-dwelling monster, Greenteeth is an utterly charming tale of fae, folklore and found family, perfect for fans of T. Kingfisher.

Beneath the still surface of a lake lurks a monster with needle-sharp teeth. Hungry and ready to pounce...

Jenny Greenteeth has never spoken to a human before, but when a witch is thrown into her lake by an angry mob, something makes Jenny decide she's worth saving. Temperance doesn't know why her village has suddenly turned against her, only that it has something to do with the malevolent new pastor. All she wants is to return to her husband and children, still trapped under his baleful influence.

Though they have nothing in common, these two unlikely companions must band together on a magical quest to defeat the evil that threatens Temperance's family, Jenny's lake, and possibly the very soul of Britain.

'Charming, magical and intensely human, with grace notes of Pratchett and T. H. White, Greenteeth is a masterclass in the art of storytelling.'
Tom Holt, author of The Portable Door

'Greenteeth is a delight - a joyful, warm-hearted adventure, riddled with unique characters and poignant friendships, rooted deep in old magic and myth. Jenny's voice will live in your head long after you leave her story behind.'
H. G. Parry, author of The Magician's Daughter

'This cosiest of swamp villains . . . stands proud with the likes of Granny Weatherwax and the Wizard Howl against the creeping evils of this world. Drown me, Jenny, and pick your teeth with my bones - only, let's be friends.'
C. S. E. Cooney, World Fantasy Award Winning author of Saint Death's Daughter
