Nanette reignites storytelling when magic and storytelling are forbidden while walking a dangerous line with her sister.
E.S. Barrison weaves a story of relationships in times of suppression of truth and how destructive state-sanctioned propaganda can be.

From Jacey's list on fantasy to bring magic to familiar worlds.
