Sci-Fi & Speculative
by Nghi Vo · The Singing Hills Cycle series
A cleric and a talking hoopoe arrive at a lake house to record the story of an exiled empress. Told through objects and memory, Vo's novella braids together empire, storytelling, and the quiet fury of women erased from history—until someone bothers to listen.
