Cygna is the king’s fairy get, born with a swan wing in place of an arm. Something monstrous to hide away. But when a monster from the Underworld appears, they’re all too happy to sacrifice her life for theirs. The kingdom is withering into a wasteland and the Lindworm is making its march of destruction toward the castle. And at her coming of age, Cygna is forced from hiding and into the private war between king and queen. Born to unconventional parentage, she is stuck between two worlds and a threat to anyone who won’t suffer an inhuman girl’s ascent to power. She has been told that something monstrous lurks inside her so many times that even she is starting to believe it. To prove her worth and her loyalty, she must travel into other worlds and fairy courts to challenge the Lindworm. But even she knows she’s been sent to her death to save a kingdom that doesn’t even want her. Fans of Susanna Clarke and Erin Morgenstern will enjoy this original dark fairy tale, inspired by Scandinavian folklore and the darkest tales of the Brothers Grimm. Updated for the modern reader, this novella is for those who want a princess who finds her strength and saves herself.
