A beautifully written & pacy teen fantasy adventure, set in a world of flying ships, sky cities & powerful paper spirits. Inspired by Asian cultures & exploring themes of empire, slavery & freedom. Kurara has never known any other life than being a servant on board the Midori, but when her party trick of making paper come to life turns out to be a power treasured across the empire, she joins a skyship & its motley crew to become a Crafter. Taught by the gruff but wise Himura, Kurara learns to hunt shikigami – wild paper spirits sought after by the Princess.

Excellent world-building, a dramatic & pacy plot, & an array of deep & believable characters – explored through multiple perspectives – make this a hugely exciting fantasy adventure debut.
