"The Princess and Curdie" by George MacDonald is a children's fantasy novel published in 1883. In this sequel to "The Princess and the Goblin," young miner Curdie receives a mysterious gift from Princess Irene's magical grandmother: hands that can sense a person's true nature. Accompanied by a fearsome monster named Lina, he must journey to the royal palace where corrupt ministers are poisoning the king and plotting to seize the kingdom. Can Curdie save Princess Irene and her father before it's too late? (This is an automatically generated summary.)

The prose is dense in places but rewarding. Glad it was available as a proper ebook.

Finished it over a weekend. A great introduction to the genre if you're new to it.
