A wonderfully imaginative retelling

Rosie Hewlett, bestselling author of MEDEA

An exquisitely feminist twist on the age-old tale of Sleeping Beauty, subversive, imaginative, and wholly immersive

Olesya Salnikova Gilmore, Author of The Witch and the Tsar

Maiden is a fiercely feminist tale of family, friendship and female rage. Leighton has expertly crafted a story of glittering proportions that sizzles off the page. Utterly breathtaking.

Hazel McBride, Sunday Times bestselling author of A FATE FORGED IN FIRE

Leighton is an expert at taking well-known tales and making them her own. Epic and vivid, the world of Maiden captivates from the very first page and thrusts you into an unforgettable journey alongside characters you can’t help but root for.

Samantha Sotto Yambao, Sunday Times bestselling author of WATER MOON

'Georgia Leighton has created a beautiful, enchanting world with twists and turns as captivating as her characters'

Isabelle Schuler, author of LADY MACBETHAD

Maiden interweaves the stories of three very different women. Rich in folkloric elements and full of surprises, this is a powerful tale of women finding their true selves. Highly recommended!

Juliet Marillier, internationally bestselling author of DAUGHTER OF THE FOREST

Leighton has breathed fresh life and the fire of feminine rage into her reimagining of St George and the Dragon. I was enthralled from the very first page, immersed in its vivid setting and rich folklore, and swept up in the deftly braided lives of its three central characters. MAIDEN is a celebration of the multiplicity of womanhood, the importance of honouring your true nature, and the abiding power of female friendship
