S3E11 — The Gilded Ones by Namina Forna Science, Sex and Sorcery
-
- Books
Horrifying monsters that can kill you through shriek or claw can only be fought by other monsters, right? So training an elite army out of the young, immortal and super-strong girls you've been routinely murdering as 'demons' thanks to your severely patriarchal religion makes great sense, right? Err... right?
Find out which colour our blood ran when we read Namina Forna's powerfully feminist 'The Gilded Ones', and whether we thought it deserved a Gold star for effort - or should be subjected to its Final Death...
You can find more about Belinda Missen and her books here.
And you can find Terence MacManus and his books here.
