| Abstract | "The smallest spark can bind two hearts or start a revolution. In the magic-soaked capital city of Oluwan, Small Sade needs a job -- preferably as a maid, for employers who don't mind her unique appearance and unlucky foot. But before she can be hired, she accidentally binds herself to a powerful being known only as the Crocodile, a god rumored to devour pretty girls. Small Sade entrances the Crocodile with her secret: She is not only an orphan and an aspiring maid, but also a Curse-Eater, gifted with the ability to alter people's fates by cleaning their houses. The handsome god warns that their fates are bound, but Small Sade evades him, launching herself into a new career as the Curse-Eater of a swanky inn. She is determined to impress the wealthy inhabitants and earn her place in Oluwan City... assuming her secret-filled past -- and the revolutionary ambitions of the Crocodile God -- don't catch up with her. But maybe there is more to Small Sade. And maybe everyone in Oluwan City deserves more, too -- from the maids all the way to the Anointed Ones." -- Jacket flap. |
