'A soaring coming-of-age novel.' - THE OBSERVER 'Completely fierce, unmistakably feminist, and subversively funny. When Women Were Dragons brings the heat to misogyny with glorious imagination and talon-sharp prose.' - Bonnie Garmus, LESSONS IN CHEMISTRY In a world where girls and women are...

There was once, long ago, a foolish king who decreed that women should not, and would not, inherit. Thus when a girl-child was born to Lord Cador - Merlin-enchanted fighter of dragons and Earl of Cornwall - he secreted her away: to be raised a boy so that the family land and honour would remain intact. That child’s name was Silence. Silence must find their own place in a medieval world that is determined to place the many restrictions of gender and class upon them. With dreams of knighthood and a lonely heart to answer, Silence sets out to define themselves.

In a mythic world where breath becomes syntax and silence is never empty, the Loom has fallen quiet. But when grief braids into resonance, a forgotten glyph awakens, and Elias returns not as a child but as a convergence of wolf, dragon, and phoenix. Born of memory and myth, Elias’s rebirth stirs the Loomwake Children—Kaia, Riven, and Solin—triplets whose forms are chosen not by prophecy but by pulse. As Phoenix-Wolf, Dragon-Wolf, and Shadow-Wolf, they become the first of a new mythic category: Loomwake Shifters. But the Loom is not at peace.
