Special edition Owlcrate edition of AFTER THE FOREST by Kell Woods. Brand new, never read. After the Forest by Kell Woods was our September 2023 ‘Follow the Breadcrumbs' Adult Fantasy book choice. A retelling of "Hansel and Gretel," this book is equal parts dark fantasy, romance, and historical fiction, with just a hint of magic. “Ginger. Honey. Cinnamon. Flour. A drop of blood to bind its power.” After escaping the witch's gingerbread house fifteen years ago, Greta and Hans are dealing with the aftermath of what happened. Following a war and the deaths of their mother and stepmother, Hans is struggling with gambling debt, while Greta uses a grimoire, which she stole from the witch, to bake magical gingerbread, which keeps them afloat. However, being surrounded by superstitious people means that Greta's treats become the cause of suspicion in their village. When dark magic returns to the forest, Greta must use her magical abilities to try and save herself before her abilities themselves kill her.
