Princess Aurora's beauty and grace come at great cost. To pay for those gifts, her parents tithed Aurora's voice and her sister Isabel's sight in recompense to the faeries. In this dark revisioning of "Sleeping Beauty" set in a declining world, Hillyer intertwines the adventures of two human princesses and two ancient faerie sisters. An ambitious tale full of loose ends that suggest a sequel.
