El viaje literario de Jenna Glass comenzó con una "autobiografía" en quinto grado, floreciendo en una dedicada carrera de escritura durante la universidad. Después de enfrentar numerosos rechazos para sus primeras novelas, perseveró, logrando su primer éxito comercial con su decimoctavo manuscrito.

In the climactic conclusion of Jenna Glass's feminist fantasy series, a sinister new magic emerges, posing a grave threat to the hard-won advancements of women. As characters confront this dark force, themes of empowerment, resilience, and the struggle against oppression come to the forefront. The narrative intertwines personal journeys with broader societal challenges, culminating in a battle that will determine the future of women's rights and magic in their world.
In the riveting sequel to the feminist fantasy epic The Women's War, the ability to do magic has given women control over their own bodies. But as the patriarchy starts to fall, they must now learn to rule as women, not men. Alys may be the acknowledged queen of Women’s Well—the fledgling colony where women hold equal status with men—but she cares little for politics in the wake of an appalling personal tragedy. It is grief that drives her now. But the world continues to turn. In a distant realm unused to female rulers, Ellin struggles to maintain control. Meanwhile, the king of the island nation of Khalpar recruits an abbess who he thinks holds the key to reversing the spell that Alys’s mother gave her life to create. And back in Women’s Well, Alys’s own half brother is determined to bring her to heel. Unless these women can come together and embrace the true nature of female power, everything they have struggled to achieve may be at risk.
In a feminist fantasy epic, a revolutionary spell grants women control over their fertility, shaking the foundations of a patriarchal society. In a world where noblemen prioritize producing male heirs, women are treated as possessions. However, the spell's aftermath empowers women with a new bargaining chip. Two women, Alys and Ellin, stand at the forefront of this change. Alys, a widowed mother and disinherited daughter of a king, discovers her unexpected talents in politics and magic—once reserved for men. Meanwhile, young Ellin ascends to the throne after the sudden death of her grandfather and others in line for succession. Contrary to expectations, she plans to assert her power rather than surrender it to a husband. Tensions escalate when a caravan of exiled women and disgraced soldiers uncover a new source of magic in a once-desolate desert, a magic that only women can wield. This revolutionary force threatens to dismantle the remnants of patriarchy, prompting those in power to fight fiercely to maintain their control. Yet, the courage and determination of generations of women who have tasted freedom may prove unstoppable.
