Summary

A talking pearl earring. A gleaming white unicorn. A flower from an ogre.

Sandy Blunt, a witch, has big dreams but C-average magic skills. Her only noteworthy talent is for paying extravagant compliments to women. Trouble is, when she uses that gift, she unwittingly foretells the future for a pretty princess. And, the punishment for prophesying about one of royal blood is death...

With the help of ill-assorted companions - including a self-proclaimed princess in disguise, a self-absorbed member of the royal guard, and the not-so-average girl next door - Sandy has a year and a day to travel to far-flung places, collecting the weird and magical items needed to turn her prophecies into promises and evade the executioner. Along the way, she encounters such dangerous creatures as a dragon who writes awful poetry, slovenly elves, and boarding house landladies.

Silly but fun

Very funny and well written, I really enjoyed it! Interspersed with myths and fairy tails and a large douse of feminism it kept me thoroughly entertained.

Absolutely Hilarious

What made the experience of listening to Promises, Promises the most enjoyable?

The narration was excellent and actually made the audio version even funnier than the print version.

What about Kitty Hendrix’s performance did you like?

Boy can she do droll. Will look out for other books narrated by her. Excellent.
