"From Alix E. Harrow, the Sunday Times bestselling author of Starling House, comes a moving and genre-defying quest.
A legend. A lie. A love story.
A lady-knight whose legend built a nation meets a retiring historian in awe of her fame. He's sent back through time to make sure she plays her part . . . even if it breaks his heart.
Sir Una Everlasting was Dominion's greatest hero: the orphaned girl who became a knight, who died for queen and country. Her legend lives on in songs and stories, in children's books and recruiting posters - but her life as it truly happened has been forgotten. Centuries later, Owen Mallory - failed soldier, struggling scholar - falls in love with the tale of Una Everlasting. Her story takes him to war, to the archives, and then into the past itself. Una and Owen are tangled together in time, bound to retell the same story over and over again, no matter what it costs. But that story always ends the same way.
If they want to rewrite Una's legend, and finally tell a different story, they'll have to rewrite history itself - and change their lives in the process.

La ciudad de Eden es conocida por la leyenda de E. Starling, una ermitaña autora famosa por escribir e ilustrar La Subterra… y esfumarse.

Sin embargo, a pesar de que sabe que no debería relacionarse con hombres huraños ni casas encantadas, Opal no puede ignorar la oferta de empleo que le ofrecen. La mansión Starling no tarda en convertirse en algo que nunca ha tenido, un hogar. Pero fuerzas siniestras acechan en sus muros, y Arthur y ella deben decidir si desenterrar el pasado y enfrentarse a él, o dejar que Eden sea devorado por las pesadillas. Y si Opal quiere tener un lugar al que pertenecer, primero deberá luchar por él.

'Alix E. Harrow is an exceptional, undeniable talent' - Olivie Blake, author of The Atlas Six
Step into Starling House - if you dare . . . Alix E. Harrow reimagines Beauty and the Beast in this gorgeously modern Gothic fantasy, perfect for fans of V. E. Schwab and Naomi Novik.
No one in Eden remembers when Starling House was built. But everyone agrees that it's best to let the house - and its last, lonely heir - go to rot. Starling House is uncanny and ugly and fully of secrets, just like its heir. Opal knows better than to mess with haunted houses or brooding men, but it might be a chance to get her brother out of Eden. It feels dangerously like something she's never had: a home.
But Opal isn't the only one interested in the house, or the horrors and wonders that lie beneath it. If Opal wants a home, she'll have to fight for it. She'll have to dig up her family's ugly history and let herself dream of a better future. She'll have to go down, down into Underland, and claw her way back to the light . . .
This is a romantic and spellbinding Gothic fairytale from Hugo, Nebula and Locus Award-shortlisted Alix E. Harrow.

"Una profunda historia sobre la resistencia, la sororidad y el derecho a voto ambientada en una versión alternativa de la Nueva Inglaterra del siglo XIX.
En 1893 ya no hay brujas. En el pasado sí que las había, en esa época oscura e inhóspita antes de que empezasen a encenderse las hogueras. Ahora, la brujería es poco más que hechizos de amas de casa y canciones infantiles. Si la mujer moderna quiere algo de poder, las urnas son el único lugar donde puede llegar a conseguirlo.
Pero James Juniper, Agnes Amaranth y Beatrice Belladonna, las hermanas Eastwood, se unen a las sufragistas de Nueva Salem y empiezan a buscar las palabras y los componentes olvidadas capaces de convertir la revolución de las mujeres en la revolución de las brujas. Las hermanas se verán acechadas por sombras y todo tipo de males, perseguidas por fuerzas que no tienen intención de permitir que las brujan voten, o que vivan siquiera, y tendrán que indagar en magia antigua, forjar nuevas alianzas y solucionar los problemas entre ellas si quieren sobrevivir.
Ya no hay brujas. Pero las habrá.
