Our science fiction, fantasy, and horror book group will discuss The Empress of Salt and Fortune by Nghi Vo. A young royal from the far north is sent south for a political marriage in an empire reminiscent of imperial China. Alone and sometimes reviled, she must choose her allies carefully. Rabbit, a handmaiden sold by her parents to the palace for the lack of five baskets of dye, befriends the emperor's lonely new wife and gets more than she bargained for. Books will be available on the top floor display six weeks in advance. Visit the Information Desk or email storef@stolib.org if you would like to be added to the email reminder list.
