Gregory Maguire recommends
Glass (2024)
Kathryn Lasky
"Kathy Lasky embellishes and burnishes the time-honored tropes of the Cinderella tale with her customary clarity of storytelling and novelty of invention. Glass sparkles."
Nicked (2024)
M T Anderson
"A miracle worker, M. T. Anderson has exhumed the bones of holy legend and startled them to life. Nicked is a far-fetched caper based on the actual heist of the corpse of Saint Nicholas. At once blessedly comic and acerbic, Anderson's confession of devotion to the unresolvable mysteries of faith and love had me laughing out loud and tearing up - nearly simultaneously."
