In the beloved tradition of Howl's Moving Castle, a whimsical and unforgettable story of fantastic adventure, common sense, and the power of love to overcome the greatest of obstacles ...
Everyone in Foss Butcher's village knows what happens when the magic-workers come; they harvest human hearts to use in their spells. That's just how life in her kingdom works. But Foss, plain, clumsy, and practical as a boot, never expected anyone would want hers.
When a sorcerer snags a piece of Foss's heart without meaning to, she is furious. For once a heart is snagged, the experience is ... well, unpleasant. So, Foss finds herself stomping toward the grand City to keep his enchanted House and demands that he fixes her before she keels over and dies, or whatever happens when hearts are Snagged.
But the sorcerer, Sylvester, is not what she expected. Petulant, idle, and new to his powers, Sylvester has no clue how to undo the heart-taking, or how to do much of anything really, apart from sulk. Foss's only friend is a talking cat and even the House's walls themselves have moods.
As Foss searches for a cure, she accidentally uncovers that there is much more to the heart-taking--and to the magic-workers themselves--than she could have ever imagined. ...
Down-to-earth and completely irresistible, Foss is fantastic, as is her talking cat! A Harvest of Hearts is that rare story that feels both classic and unique at the same time. I loved it!--Sarah Beth Durst, New York Times bestselling author of The Spellshop
