A princess in exile. Six enchanted cranes. An unspeakable curse. A
beautiful and immersive YA fantasy retelling of the Grimm brothers'
The Six Swans fairytale, set in an East-Asian inspired world, by
the author of Spin the Dawn. 'A dazzling fairy tale full of
breathtaking storytelling' Stephanie Garber, Sunday Times
bestselling author of Caraval Shiori'anma, the only princess of
Kiata, has a secret. Forbidden magic runs in her veins. And on the
morning of her betrothal ceremony, Shiori loses control. At first,
her mistake seems like a stroke of luck, forestalling the wedding
she never wanted, but it also catches the attention of Raikama, her
stepmother. A sorceress in her own right, Raikama banishes the
young princess, turning her brothers into cranes, and warning
Shiori that she must speak of it to no one: for with every word
that escapes her lips, one of her brothers will die. Penniless,
voiceless, and alone, Shiori searches for her brothers, and
uncovers a dark conspiracy to seize the throne. Only Shiori can set
the kingdom to rights, but to do so she must place her trust in a
paper bird, a mercurial dragon, and the very boy she fought so hard
not to marry. And she must embrace the magic she's been taught all
her life to contain - no matter what it costs. Praise for Six
