Project Runway meets Mulan in this sweeping fantasy about a young girl who poses as a boy to compete for the role of imperial tailor and embarks on an impossible journey to sew three magic dresses from the sun the moon and the stars.
On the fringes of the Great Spice Road Maia Tamarin dreams of becoming the greatest tailor in the land - but as a girl the best she can hope for is to marry well. Then a royal messenger summons her ailing father to court and Maia seizes her chance. Disguised as a man she travels to the Summer Palace in her fathers place to compete for the emperors favour and the coveted position of imperial tailor.
If Maias ruse is discovered her life will be forfeit. But if she wins she will achieve her greatest dream.
Yet nothing could have prepared her for the challenge ahead: to sew three magic gowns for the emperors bride-to-be. One from the laughter of the sun one from the tears of the moon and one from the blood of stars.
Accompanied by the mysterious court enchanter whose piercing eyes seem to see straight through her disguise Maias journey will take her to the far reaches of the kingdom seeking the sun the moon and the stars and finding more than she ever could have imagined.
Steeped in Chinese culture sizzling with forbidden romance and shimmering with magic this young adult fantasy is pitch-perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas or Renée Ahdieh.

Ever since she was touched by the demon Bandur she has been changing: losing control of her magic her body and her mind. Its only a matter of time before Maia loses herself completely but until then she will stop at nothing to find Edan protect her family and bring lasting peace to her home.
The stakes are higher than ever in this breathtaking sequel to Spin the Dawn.
