One sip of beer.
A leap across worlds.
A fight for belonging.
In her dazzling debut, Annabel Youens delivers a speculative novel in the vein of Margaret Atwood and Ursula K. Le Guin — where fungi, family, and fierce women collide.
When August Monk sips a historic brew, she’s transported into an alternate world — one where women connected to nature resist a patriarchal religious order determined to burn them out. As August searches for a way home, she discovers bonds of rage, resilience, and chosen family stronger than blood.
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
In the vein of Margaret Atwood and Ursula K. Le Guin.”
“A strong debut with compelling characters that passionately advocates for community, nature, and found family.”
“Masterful worldbuilding… tragic and harrowing, yet undeniably hopeful.”
