I really enjoyed A Spindle Splintered (I ranked it first for the Novella Hugo last year), and hadn't realised this was a sequel to it until I started reading. So that was a nice surprise :)

Again, this is a feminist multi-verse based re-examination of a fairy tale, that also asks about who is and isn't the protagonist in the stories they find themselves in. It's also a reminder that being the friend of a hero sucks!

I don't know how many books like this Harrow can write whilst still keeping them fresh and interesting, but I thought this one works really well.
