"A vivid, subversive and feminist reimagining of Sleeping Beauty, where implacable destiny is no match for courage, sisterhood, stubbornness and a good working knowledge of fairy tales." —Katherine Arden It's Zinnia Gray's twenty-first birthday, which is extra-special because it's the last birthday she'll ever have. When she was young, an industrial accident left Zinnia with a rare condition. Not much is known about her illness, just that no-one has lived past twenty-one. Her best friend Charm is intent on making Zinnia's last birthday special with a full sleeping beauty experience, complete with a tower and a spinning wheel. But when Zinnia pricks her finger, something strange and unexpected happens, and she finds herself falling through worlds, with another sleeping beauty, just as desperate to escape her fate.

In a sprawling mansion filled with peculiar treasures, January Scaller is a curiosity herself. As the ward of the wealthy Mr. Locke, she feels little different from the artifacts that decorate the halls: carefully maintained, largely ignored, and utterly out of place.

Each page turn reveals impossible truths about the world and January discovers a story increasingly entwined with her own. Lush and richly imagined, a tale of impossible journeys, unforgettable love, and the enduring power of stories awaits in Alix E. Harrow's spellbinding debut--step inside and discover its magic."--Publisher.

"Eden, Kentucky, is just another dying, bad-luck town, known only for the legend of E. Starling, the reclusive nineteenth-century author and illustrator who wrote The Underland--and disappeared. Before she vanished, Starling House appeared. But everyone agrees that it's best to let the uncanny house--and its last lonely heir, Arthur Starling--go to rot. Opal knows better than to mess with haunted houses or brooding men, but an unexpected job offer might be a chance to get her brother out of Eden. Too quickly, though, Starling House starts to feel dangerously like something she's never had: a home. As sinister forces converge on Starling House, Opal and Arthur are going to have to make a dire choice: to dig up the buried secrets of the past and confront their own fears, or let Eden be taken over by literal nightmares. If Opal wants a home, she'll have to fight for it."--

From Alix E. Harrow, the Sunday Times bestselling author of Starling House, comes a moving and genre-defying quest. A legend. A lie. A love story. Sir Una Everlasting, Dominion's greatest hero, is an orphaned girl who became a knight and died for queen and country. Her true life story has been forgotten, overshadowed by the songs and stories that celebrate her legend. Centuries later, Owen Mallory, a failed soldier and struggling scholar, becomes captivated by Una's tale. His journey takes him from war to the archives and ultimately back in time, where he and Una are intertwined, forced to relive the same narrative repeatedly. However, this cycle always concludes in heartbreak. To alter Una's legend and tell a different story, they must rewrite history itself, risking everything in the process. The book has received high praise for its originality and emotional depth, with critics calling it an exquisite romance and a masterpiece. Alix E. Harrow's work continues to resonate, solidifying her reputation as one of the finest writers of her generation.
