Idolfire

'Times like these you wish you had something to pray to'

Idolfire is an epic sapphic fantasy inspired by the fall of Rome from the author of the Frontier and Floating Hotel.

ON ONE SIDE OF THE WORLD, Aleya Ana-Ulai is desperate for a chance. Her family have written her off as a mistake, but she's determined to prove every last one of them wrong.

ON THE OTHER, Kirby of Wall's End is searching for redemption. An ancient curse tore her life apart, but to fix it, she'll have to leave everything behind.

Fate sets them both on the path to Nivela, a city once poised to conquer the world with the power of a thousand stolen gods. Now the gates are closed and the old magic slumbers. Dead - or waiting for a spark to light it anew . . .

Grace Curtis is a freeroaming writer from Newcastle-Upon-Tyne. Her debut Frontier, a queer space western about climate change (really), came out in March last year. The follow up Floating Hotel was a bestseller in the UK. When she's not dreaming up stories, Grace can usually be found up a hill somewhere, climbing or hiking or lolling idly in the grass. Idolfire is her first work of fantasy. There will be more!
