A dazzling, magical new novel from the Hugo finalist and Crawford Award winner Nghi Vo It was magic. In every world, it was a kind of magic. Luli Wei wants to be a star. She comes of age in a fantastical version of 1920s pre-code Hollywood where the studios pick up and grind up endless starlets, changelings, and dreamers, and many a young actor goes to the Friday night fires and never returns. She's Chinese American in an age where she's sometimes feared—at best—sometimes reviled, and forced to play monsters on screen. But in Luli's world, the monsters are very real. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
