Book Synopsis

El espejo enmendado de Alix E. Harrow, la autora superventas de Las brujas del ayer y del mañana y de Las diez mil puertas de Enero, consigue insuflar de un atractivo incuestionable a una nueva versión de una historia clásica.

Zinnia Gray, reparadora profesional de cuentos de hadas y la Bella Durmiente en receso, está por rescatar princesas que roncan. Una vez que hayas rescatado a una docena de doncellas y quemado cincuenta husos, una vez que te hayas emborrachado con veinte buenas hadas y te hayas besado con demasiados miembros de la familia real, empiezas a desear que algunas de estas chicas simplemente se controlen y tratar de resolver sus propios problemas narrativos.

Justo cuando Zinnia comienza a pensar que no puede manejar a una princesa más, se mira en un espejo y ve otra cara que la mira: la cara sorprendentemente hermosa del mal, que le pide ayuda. Porque hay más de una persona atrapada en una historia que no eligieron. La Reina Malvada de Blancanieves ha descubierto cómo termina su historia a partir de lo que podría ser el libro de cuentos de hadas de Zinnia y está desesperada por un final mejor. Quiere que Zinnia la ayude y necesita hacerlo antes de que sea demasiado tarde para todos.

¿Zinnia aceptará la solicitud venenosa de la Reina y los salvará a ambos de los zapatos de hierro candente que los esperan, o intentará otro camino?

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A Mirror Mended is the next installment in USA Today's bestselling author, Alix E., Harrow's Fractured Fables series.

Zinnia Gray, professional fairy-tale fixer and lapsed Sleeping Beauty is over rescuing snoring princesses. Once you've rescued a dozen damsels and burned fifty spindles; once you've gotten drunk with twenty good fairies and made out with one too many members of the royal family, you start to wish some of these girls would just get a grip and try solving their own narrative issues.

Just when Zinnia's beginning to think she can't handle one more princess, she glances into a mirror and sees another face looking back at her: the shockingly gorgeous face of evil, asking for her help. Because there's more than one person trapped in a story they didn't choose. Snow White's Evil Queen has found out how her story ends, and she's desperate for a better ending. She wants Zinnia to help her before it's too late for everyone.

Will Zinnia accept the Queen's poisonous request, and save them both from the hot iron shoes that await them, or will she try another path?
