Description

Orphan. Thief. Witch. Foxheart is a classic fantasy-adventure by Claire Legrand, reminiscent of Howl's Moving Castle. Twelve-year-old Quicksilver lives as a thief in Willow-on-the-River, accompanied only by her dog Fox and her friend Sly Boots. Her life changes when she discovers she can perform real magic, which is forbidden. Determined to learn more and possibly find her parents, Quicksilver embarks on a journey full of magic, adventure, friendship, and self-discovery. The novel explores themes of truth, lies, strength, and love, appealing to fans of Neil Gaiman and Diana Wynne Jones.
