Praise for Alix E. Harrow's Fractured Fables A Spindle Splintered shortlisted for the Hugo, Locus, and British Fantasy Awards! A Mirror Mended is a Hugo and Locus Award Finalist and a finalist for the SIBA Southern Book Prize! "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 "An exceptional heroine, smart writing, and a winning plot." --Nancy Pearl, on A Spindle Splintered "A lively, engaging fairy-tale retelling perfect for devouring in a single sitting." --Kirkus Reviews, on A Mirror Mended "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 "Like Into the Spider-Verse for Disney princesses, A Spindle Splintered is a delightful mash-up featuring Alix E. Harrow's trademark beautiful prose and whip-smart characters." --Mike Chen, author of Here and Now and Then "A wonderfully imaginative, and Queer as hell, tale for those who wish to be the authors of their own stories." --Kalynn Bayron, author of Cinderella is Dead, on A Spindle Splintered
