"Una feminista y locuaz reinterpretación de La Bella Durmiente, donde el destino implacable puede ser desafiado por el corage, la sororidad y la perseverencia, así como por un buen conocimiento de los cuentos de hadas". ―Katherine Arden

Es el vigesimoprimer cumpleaños de Zinnia Gray, un día muy especial porque será el último cumpleaños que celebrará jamás. Cuando era joven, un accidente industrial le provocó una extraña enfermedad. No se sabe mucho sobre ella, pero sí que no le permitirá llegar a cumplir los veintidós.

Su mejor amiga Charm está decidida a conseguir que el ultimo cumpleaños de Zinnia sea toda una experiencia basada en la bella durmiente, con torre, rueca y todo. Pero cuando Zinnia se pincha el dedo, ocurre algo extraño e inesperado que la hace caer entre mundos y encontrar a otra bella durmiente que está tan desesperada como ella por escapar de su destino.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

USA Today bestselling author Alix E. Harrow's A Spindle Splintered brings her patented charm to a new version of a classic story.

"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

It's Zinnia Gray's twenty-first birthday, which is extra-special because it's the last birthday she'll ever have. When she was young, an industrial accident left Zinnia with a rare condition. Not much is known about her illness, just that no-one has lived past twenty-one.

Her best friend Charm is intent on making Zinnia's last birthday special with a full sleeping beauty experience, complete with a tower and a spinning wheel. But when Zinnia pricks her finger, something strange and unexpected happens, and she finds herself falling through worlds, with another sleeping beauty, just as desperate to escape her fate.
