About this listen

They’ll lure you in with fruit and gems and liquor and dancing, merriment to remember for the rest of your life. But that’s an illusion. The market is death itself.

Beneath the streets of York, the goblin market calls to the Wickett women—the family of witches that tends to its victims. For generations, they have defended the old cobblestone streets with their magic. Knowing the dangers, they never entered the market—until May Wickett fell for a goblin girl, accepted her invitation, and became inextricably tied to the world her family tried to protect her from. The market learned her name, and even when she and her sister left York for Boston to escape it, the goblins remembered.

Seventeen years later, Lou, May’s niece, knows nothing of her magical lineage or the twisted streets, sweet fruits, and incredible jewels of the goblin market. But just like her aunt, the market calls to her, an echo of a curse that won’t release its hold on her family. And when her youngest aunt, Neela, is kidnapped by goblins, Lou discovers just how real and dangerous the market is.

To save her, both May and Lou will have to confront their family’s past and what happened all those years ago. But everything—from the food and wares, to the goblins themselves—is a haunting temptation for any human who manages to find their way in. And if Lou isn’t careful, she could end up losing herself to the market, too.

Absolutely brilliant!

The story, the plot, the pacing, it was all wonderful! Knowing what the story is based off of and seeing the way it’s incorporated in here, it’s beautiful. The market is both terrifying and absolutely mesmerizing. The goblins and described incredibly, it makes you both want to meet one and not at the same time.

The characters are all intriguing in their own rights and the way the characters develop over the course of the story is wonderful. The sapphic romance too? Yes please!

The narration was superb, I really enjoyed her take and the way she was able to capture each character.

This is a great little haunt of a book and one I would definitely recommend again and again and again.
