‘Rich and complex, with twists and turns all over the show.’ ‘A book I didn’t want to put down, even at the expense of my sleep.’ (Although loosely connected to other Fairytale Memoirs stories, this is a standalone novella.) 'Gifted' is a highly original take on a classic fairytale. See, Kajus is considered unusual even among the Veest, and it’s for a reason that is very hard to overlook.Īrranged marriages, desperate refugees, angry exes and the world’s ugliest fiancé. Unfortunately, Claire is only half right. And the fact that her betrothed Kajus is a shapeshifter? That can’t be so bad either, because surely he won’t be in animal form ALL the time. So when she’s unexpectedly and illegally conscripted into the private army of Mars’ most selfish, unpopular High Duke, her. Don’t lose her temper, don’t get robbed, try to sell a few of those funny cartoons she’s so good at sketching. Earth-born Iscendra Cole has small goals in life. After all, it’s her father that’s being held hostage until they come up with a bride. In the distant future, the cities of Mars are green, wild.and in desperate need of change. Claire knows she’s not the most attractive (or even the third or fourth most attractive) but she is the only one willing. The native Veest will allow Claire’s people to settle on the condition that one of their most beautiful girls marries the son of the Veest chieftain. Someone’s already living there, and they don’t want to share.not without a price being paid. Just when they find what seems like the perfect location, there’s a catch. They’ve never met Kajus.Ĭlaire and her people have wandered for years, searching for a new home away from their drought-stricken origins.
They say it’s what’s on the inside that counts.
