"The most powerful stories encompass a paradox. Spindle is
both mythic and true, old beyond reckoning and dazzlingly,
gloriously new. You've known this story all your life; you
have never heard its like before. The Storyteller Queen
lives, and her name is E. K. Johnston." —Rachel Hartman, New
York Times best-selling author of Seraphina The world is made safe by a woman...but it is a very big world. It has been generations since the Storyteller Queen drove
the demon out of her husband and saved her country from fire
and blood. Her family has prospered beyond the borders of
their village, and two new kingdoms have sprouted on either
side of the mountains where the demons are kept prisoner by
bright iron, and by the creatures the Storyteller Queen made
to keep them contained. But the prison is crumbling. Through years of careful
manipulation, a demon has regained her power. She has made
one kingdom strong and brought the other to its knees,
waiting for the perfect moment to strike. When a princess is
born, the demon is ready with the final blow: a curse that
will cost the princess her very soul, or force her to
destroy her own people to save her life. The threads of magic are tightly spun, binding princess and
exiled spinners into a desperate plot to break the curse
before the demon can become a queen of men. But the web of
power is dangerously tangled--and they may not see the true
pattern until it is unspooled.
