Girls of Paper and Fire: A sumptuous and sizzling Asian-inspired epic fantasy

3.82 (45,679 ratings by Goodreads)

English

By (author): Natasha Ngan

The mesmerising New York Times bestseller!

Each year, eight beautiful girls are chosen as Paper Girls to serve the king. It's the highest honour they could hope for . . . and the most demeaning. This year, there's a ninth.

And instead of paper, she's made of fire.


'A timely reminder that, in the right hands, the fantasy genre has things to say about injustice and abuse of power in the real world' Guardian

Lei is a member of the Paper caste, the lowest and most persecuted class of people in Ikhara. Ten years ago, her mother was snatched by the royal guards, and her fate remains unknown. Now, the guards are back and this time it's Lei they're after - the girl with the golden eyes, whose rumoured beauty has piqued the king's interest.

Over weeks of training in the opulent but oppressive palace, Lei and eight other girls learn the skills and charm that befit a king's consort. There, Lei does the unthinkable - she falls in love. Her forbidden romance becomes enmeshed with an explosive plot that threatens her world's entire way of life. Lei, still the wide-eyed country girl at heart, must decide how far she's willing to go for justice and revenge.

About Natasha Ngan

Natasha Ngan is part young-adult author part yoga-teacher part habitual nap-taker. She grew up between Malaysia and the UK speaking Chinese with her mother mainly as a way to talk about people without them understanding. She studied Geography at the University of Cambridge and later worked as a fashion blogger social media consultant and freelance writer. Natasha recently moved to Paris where she likes to imagine she drifts stylishly from brasserie to brasserie notepad in one hand and wineglass in the other. In reality she mostly spends her time lost on the metro and offending locals with her French.
