“ riveting historical fantasy…What’s surprising about Barnhill’s rare foray into adult fiction is its subversiveness and feminist rage. Bonnie Garmus, author of Lessons in Chemistry Check the skies tonight-you might just see your mother.” “Completely fierce, unmistakably feminist, and subversively funny, When Women Were Dragons brings the heat to misogyny with glorious imagination and talon-sharp prose. Lev Grossman, author of The Magicians Trilogy “Ferociously imagined, incandescent with feeling, this book is urgent and necessary and as exhilarating as a ride on dragonback.” “A complex, heartfelt story about following your heart and opening your mind to new possibilities.
