“I never knew that "you are amusingly soft-hearted for a villainous swamp creature" was the sort of affirmation I wanted out of a friendship, but honestly, may we all be so lucky as to have a friend like Brackus the goblin. Jenny Greenteeth only wants to spend her days tidying up her lake, snacking on rotten fish, and occasionally frightening the local villagers (she doesn't usually eat children, but she could). But when her small English village is infiltrated by an ancient, unspeakable evil, Jenny teams up with a human witch and a goblin salesman (salesgoblin?) to defeat the threat. Greenteeth is a delightful quest tale that draws on Arthurian legend and other familiar British Isles folklore while still feeling fresh and original. It strikes a fine balance between cozy and high stakes, our unlikely trio's friendship feels genuine, and Jenny the lake monster is just the type of prickly, morally gray narrator that I love.”
— Lily • Quail Ridge Books
Summary
From an outstanding new voice in cozy fantasy comes Greenteeth, "a joyful, warm-hearted" (H. G. Parry) tale of fae, folklore, and found family, narrated by a charismatic lake-dwelling monster with a voice unlike any other, perfect for fans of Travis Baldree and TJ Klune.
Beneath the still surface of a lake lurks a monster with needle sharp teeth. Hungry and ready to pounce.
Jenny Greenteeth has never spoken to a human before, but when a witch is thrown into her lake, something makes Jenny decide she's worth saving. Temperance doesn't know why her village has suddenly turned against her, only that it has something to do with the malevolent new pastor.
Though they have nothing in common, these two must band together on a magical quest to defeat the evil that threatens Jenny's lake and Temperance's family, as well as the very soul of Britain.

"Greenteeth is a delight--a joyful, warm-hearted adventure, riddled with unique characters and poignant friendships, rooted deep in old magic and myth. Jenny's voice will live in your head long after you leave her story behind."—H. G. Parry, author of The Magician’s Daughter"In all my life, I've never loved such a flesh-eating fae monster as Molly O'Neill's Greenteeth. This coziest of swamp villains is an ally to witches, an enemy to elven airbags, and a role model to goblins everywhere. She stands proud with the likes of Granny Weatherwax and the Wizard Howl against the creeping evils of this world. Drown me, Jenny, and pick your teeth with my bones - only, let's be friends."
—C. S. E. Cooney, World Fantasy Award winning author of Saint Death's Daughter "An enchanting folkloric fantasy infused with fae magic and Arthurian legend, Greenteeth gives us a morally grey heroine with bite you can't help but root for. I was hooked from start to finish."—Alicia Jasinska, author of The Dark Tide "Greenteeth is a breathtaking quest through the wild roads and deep lakes of ancient England, shot through with dark folklore and darker magic. An unforgettable tale of unlikely friendships, impossible choices and the unbreakable bonds between mothers and daughters."—Holly Race, author of Six Wild Crowns "Greenteeth is a completely delightful tale, full of warmth, wit and legendary adventure. As comforting and as moreish as a cup of tea and a packet of chocolate biscuits."—Francesca May, author of Wild and Wicked Things "Charming, magical and intensely human, with grace notes of Pratchett and T. H. White, Greenteeth is a masterclass in the art of storytelling."—Tom Holt, author of The Portable Door "A charmingly monstrous debut."—T. Kingfisher, author of Nettle and Bone Expand reviews
