Description
Gerta has been in love with her neighbour, Kay, for as long as she can remember. Kay thinks Gerta is...fine. When Kay is stolen away by the mysterious Snow Queen, it's up to Gerta to find him.
Her journey will take her through a dangerous land of snow and witchcraft, spirit roads and shape-shifters. Accompanied by a talking raven and a strangely entrancing bandit girl named Janna, Gerta travels further north than north to confront the Snow Queen and rescue Kay.
The journey will be dangerous, but the unpredictable currents of her own heart might be the most frightening thing of all.
The Raven and the Reindeer by T. Kingfisher is a thrilling tale of adventure and self-discovery.

About the Author
T. Kingfisher is the vaguely absurd pen name author Ursula Vernon uses when writing for adults. In another life, she writes children's books and weird comics. As Kingfisher, she has won the Hugo, Nebula, Locus and Dragon Awards, including the Hugo for Best Novel for her book Nettle & Bone. When she is not writing, she is probably out in the garden, trying to make eye contact with butterflies.
