The Orphan's Tales: In the Cities of Coin and Spice

Catherynne M. Valente enchanted readers with her spellbinding In the Night Garden. Now she continues to weave her storytelling magic in a new book of Orphanâ€™s Talesâ€”an epic of the fantastic and the exotic, the monstrous and mysterious, that will transport you far away from the everydayâ€¦.

Her name and origins are unknown, but the endless tales inked upon this orphanâ€™s eyelids weave a spell over all who listen to her read her secret history. And who can resist the stories she tells? From the Lake of the Dead and the City of Marrow to the artists who remain behind in a ghost city of spice, here are stories of hedgehog warriors and winged skeletons, loyal leopards and sparrow calligraphers. Nothing is too fantastic, anything can happen, but youâ€™ll never guess what comes next in these intimately linked adventures of firebirds and djinn, singing manticores, mutilated unicorns, and women made entirely of glass and gears. Graced with the magical illustrations of Michael Kaluta, In the Cities of Coins and Spice is a book of dreams and wonders unlike any youâ€™ve ever encountered. Open it anywhere and you will fall under its spell. For here the story never ends and the magic is only beginningâ€¦.
