Now that her youngest sister is married to the prince and has left home, she is the last of the sisters to remain home with their mother, father and brothers. Why she would get that idea, after magically changing her axe into a sword, is anyone’s guess. Saturday Woodcutter is the “normal” one – or so she thinks. Is Saturday powerful enough to kill the mountain witch who holds her captive and save the world from sure destruction? And, as she wonders grumpily, “Did romance have to be part of the adventure?” As in Enchanted, readers will revel in the fragments of fairy tales that embellish this action-packed story of adventure and, yes, romance. With her sword in tow, Saturday sets sail on a pirate ship, only to find herself kidnapped and whisked off to the top of the world. Rough and tumble Saturday Woodcutter thinks she’s the only one of her sisters without any magic - until the day she accidentally conjures an ocean in the backyard. After Enchanted did to me what its title promised (if more with the Woodcutter family than with the romance) I couldn’t keep my hands off the second book in the series.įirst sentence: “Oh, hooray! It’s you!” The airy voice burbled like the brook, but there were no women in Peregrine’s traveling party save the one he currently pursued, the bright-eyed temptress who haunted his every thought.
