Synopsis

Another Turn, and the deadly silver Threads began falling again.

Goodreads review by Justine

I'm not sure why I never read these as a teenager, but I sure am enjoying them now. The writing has an unselfconscious quaintness and ease that is quite endearing. The story easily positions itself as a kind of science fantasy hybrid without even trying to align wholly on one end or the other of the......more
