#WATTYS2018 LONGLIST!! When Sparrow snuck off to end the ransom deal with the shifty dwarf, she didn't count on having a sister kidnapped. Nor did she anticipate being roped along on a crazy quest where she finds herself in a dragon's lair, in a royal palace, and everywhere in between. All she wanted was for Augustin to propose so she could finally stop that dreaded spinning, finally have a home for her little sister and herself, finally be loved. Except maybe a small part of her still longs for the innocent girl she used to be, singing and playing in the woods with her best friend and dreaming of adventure. The part of herself she tried so hard to bury when her pap disappeared and her mam went crazy years ago. And as Sparrow discovers more secrets about herself than she ever could have imagined, she is forced to question which of her dreams, if any, is the one she really wants. From the author of Beyond the Tower comes a loose retelling of Snow White and Rose Red, Rumpelstiltskin, and The Goose Girl filled with more magic, adventure, and romance than ever before.

It starts with a crack. Or maybe it starts with a question. Or maybe, just maybe, it starts earlier than that, when a particular bubble of a universe arose from the heaving sea of the multiverse and began to grow. Eventually, stars formed, then exploded, giving birth to more stars. Planets grew alongside their stars, and a few special ones happened to contain the right conditions for life to form. Maybe that's too far back, though. Maybe, you argue, the crack and the question are really what's important. So let's get back to the question...
