Description
“Implacable destiny is no match for courage, sisterhood, stubbornness, and a good working knowledge of fairy tales.”—Katherine Arden, bestselling author of the Winternight trilogy, on A Spindle Splintered
Follow professional fairy-tale fixer Zinnia Gray as she helps women get the endings they deserve! First, Sleeping Beauty in A Spindle Splintered, fractured and reimagined. And then, Snow White's Evil Queen in A Mirror Mended!
In A Spindle Splintered, it's Zinnia Gray's twenty-first birthday. When she was young, an industrial accident left her with a rare condition and no one who has it has lived to twenty-two.
Her best friend is intent on making Zin's last birthday special with a full sleeping beauty experience, complete with a tower and a spinning wheel. But when Zinnia pricks her finger, she finds herself cast into another world, with another sleeping beauty, just as desperate to escape her fate.
Then, in A Mirror Mended, Zinnia discovers there’s more than one person trapped in a story they didn’t choose. Snow White's Evil Queen has found out how her story ends and she's desperate for a rewrite. Will Zinnia accept the queen's poisonous request for a rewrite and save them both from the hot iron shoes that wait for them? Or will she try another path?
A Macmillan Audio production from Tor.com.

“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, bestselling author of the Winternight trilogy, on A Spindle Splintered
“It's funny, sharp, queer, and deeply loves its source material...This novella pushes against the hopelessness of inevitability; it dares us to believe in sympathetic magic; it tells us we're connected through story. It might dent your heart a little, but it's good fun.”—NPR, on A Spindle Splintered
“A lively, engaging fairy-tale retelling perfect for devouring in a single sitting.”—Kirkus Reviews, on A Mirror Mended
