What a magical standalone from Brandon Sanderson. Tress is a different style of character from his usual personalities but feels natural and lovable. Her determination, grit, ingenuity, care for others and self-declared normalcy make you root for her from the beginning.

Readers who know Wit from Sanderson's Stormlight archive will enjoy his irreverent narration. If you find Sanderson's usual expansive style of epic fantasy slow, you'll enjoy this well-paced modern fairytale with its whimsical magical system of spores and moons.
