Creation And Apocalypse In Feminist Speculative Fiction

'Exhilarating, dangerous and a little bit sexy. The genre blend I didn't know I needed' Hazel McBride, author of A Fate Forged in FireFourth Wing meets Formula 1 in this high-action, slow burn sports romantasy as two rival riders reunite at the annual dragon racing Grand Prix.The Silverscale Grand Prix is the national championship of dragon racing - a high-speed, often deadly, elite sport with an unimaginably big cash prize. Asta and her dragon Carmine are unlikely competitors. No sponsors, no high-tech gear, no fans out in the stands. Not to mention that a female rider hasn't won the Prix for nearly sixty years. The odds are stacked against them - but Asta is determined to prove everyone wrong: the training school that kicked her out for fighting a classmate, her family who wished she'd never left the farm, and, most of all, her infuriatingly arrogant childhood-best-friend-turned-rival Felix, the poster-boy heir to the Seraphin racing dynasty and reigning tournament champion. Raw talent alone won't be enough to get Asta and Carmine through these races - and it soon becomes clear that the risks Asta has taken to get to Silverscale could have devastating consequences.Time to think fast, or die trying . . .??
