Young Adult Fantasy

Twenty years ago, Robin McKinley dazzled readers with the power of her novel BEAUTY. Now this extraordinarily gifted novelist returns to the story of Beauty and the Beast with a fresh perspective, ingenuity, and mature insight.

With ROSE DAUGHTER, she presents her finest and most deeply felt work--a compelling, richly imagined, and haunting exploration of the transformative power of love.

...

Once upon a time, a wealthy merchant had three daughters. When his business failed, he moved his daughters to the countryside. The youngest daughter, Beauty, is fascinated by the thorny stems of a mysterious plant that overwhelms their neglected cottage. She tends the plant until it blossoms with the most beautiful flowers the sisters have ever seenβ€”roses.

Admiring the roses, an old woman tells Beauty, β€œRoses are for love.” And she speaks of a sorcerers’ battle many years ago that left a beast in an enchanted palace, and a curse concerning a family of three sisters . . .
