The Puppetmaster’s Apprentice
- Narrated by: Liz Pearce
Impressed by the work of the puppet master and his apprentice, Tavia’s ruler, The Margrave, ordered dozens of life-size puppet soldiers to be sent to the Wolfspire Hall. As the order to add more troops arrived with increasingly pressing deadlines, the puppet master’s health suffered and Pirouette, his daughter and protégé, was assigned to build in his stead. But something much more complicated is brewing in Wolfspire – the Earl’s son wants Pirouette to create an assassin. And he wants her to give it life.
With Tavia on the brink of war and her father dying in the dungeon, Pirouette had no choice but to accept. Racing against the arrival of the next blue moon – the magic that will bring her creations to life – she can’t help but wonder, is she creating a masterpiece… or a monster?
From the very beginning, this talented author set a beautiful dark and enchanting tone to this wonderful classic fairy tale. The author easily imagines the characters, sees their colors, feels their struggles, hears their cries and experiences their triumphs.
Similar to Lovecraft’s The Outsider, who believes himself to be a ‘stranger in this century and among those who are still men’, I love main characters, such as this one in this story, who must find a way to navigate life knowing they will never fit in and often feel compelled to keep a secret as to why – a feeling that many fans of the genre can relate to, including the genre.
Overall this is a great story to read. I am looking forward to and hope to read more from this author soon.
