A Girl Made of Time: A Novelette
About this audiobook
Girls who wander into the forest at night never return quite the same...
When a peasant girl follows glowing mushrooms into the forbidden forest, she discovers the witch waiting in the cave wears her own face—and the mad queen in the castle does too.
In a kingdom gripped by famine, young Carys has always been the wild child her mother couldn't tame. But when mysterious mushrooms begin to glow at her touch and lead her deep into the forest, she stumbles into an impossible truth: she is the witch, she will become the queen, and time itself has trapped her in an endless cycle.
As Carys learns to see the hidden threads connecting past, future, and the secret stores of food that could save her starving family, she must choose between remaining the girl she was or becoming the powerful, feared woman she's destined to be. But in a story where the ending is also the beginning, can she find a way to break free—or is she doomed to walk the same path forever?
Perfect for fans of Alix E. Harrow and Naomi Novik, A Girl Made of Time is a lyrical, genre-bending tale of magic, sacrifice, and the impossible weight of living three lives at once.
