Spindle Fire
"As the truths behind the faerie legends were revealed, I couldn't turn the pages fast enough."--Kendare Blake, author of New York Times bestselling novel Three Dark Crowns
"Absorbing. Poetic. Lexa Hillyer draws the walls between dreams and reality with shimmering grace and phrases of such beauty I had to read many of them twice." --Jodi Lynn Anderson, author of Tiger Lily
"With its engaging heroines and delicious prose, Spindle Fire pulled me into a richly detailed world full of intrigue and magic." --Amy Ewing, New York Times bestselling author of the Lone City trilogy
Half sisters Isabelle and Aurora are polar opposites: Isabelle is the king's headstrong illegitimate daughter, whose sight was tithed by faeries; Aurora, beautiful and sheltered, was tithed her sense of touch and voice on the same day. Despite their differences, the sisters have always been extremely close.
And then everything changes, with a single drop of Aurora's blood, a Faerie Queen who is preparing for war, a strange and enchanting dream realm--and a sleep so deep it cannot be broken.
Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Leigh Bardugo, Spindle Fire is a tour-de-force fantasy set in the dwindling, deliciously corrupt world of the fae and featuring two truly unforgettable heroines.
