After years of seeing her sisters suffer at the hands of an abusive prince, Marra—the shy, convent-raised, third-born daughter—has finally realized that no one is coming to their rescue. No one, except for Marra herself. Seeking help from a powerful gravewitch, Marra is offered the tools to kill a prince—if she can complete three impossible tasks. But, as is the way in tales of princes, witches, and daughters, the impossible is only the beginning. On her quest, Marra is joined by the gravewitch, a reluctant fairy godmother, a strapping former knight, and a chicken possessed by a demon. Together, the five of them intend to be the hand that closes around the throat of the prince and frees Marra's family and their kingdom from its tyrannous ruler at last.

Loved every second of this book. TJ Kingfisher masterfully weaved familiar fairytale elements into something completely new. The story follows Mara as she tries to save her sister from a cursed marriage to a cruel and abusive prince. She discovers her own strength along the way as well as some very interesting friends.
The demon chicken was almost everything I’d hoped for
