Princess Anya has a big problem: Duke Rikard, her step-stepfather is an evil wizard who wants to rule the kingdom and has a habit of changing people into frogs, and her older sister Morven, the heir, is a wimp--so with the help of the librarian Gotfried (who turns into an owl when he is upset), and the Royal Dogs, she must find away to defeat Rikard, save her sister, and maybe even turn Prince Denholm back into a human being.

Review of 'Frogkisser!' on 'Storygraph'

5 stars

It starts out with talking dogs. So I had a good feeling I was in for an enjoyable break from the bleak and the heavy.

An added bonus of this story is that part of the battle between good and evil is the struggle to promote the constitutional rule of law.

Frogkisser reminded me in a good way of the fun fantasy novels of A. Lee Martinez like [b:A Nameless Witch|225605|A Nameless Witch|A. Lee Martinez|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1312047382s/225605.jpg|218510].

This story doesn't need a sequel, but it would be fun to experience life with some of these characters again.
