![]() How Rory Thorne Destroyed the Multiverse is a feminist reimagining of familiar fairytale tropes and a story of resistance and self-determination-how small acts of rebellion can lead a princess to not just save herself, but change the course of history. With only her wits and a small team of allies, Rory must outmaneuver the Regent and rescue the prince. An unscrupulous minister has conspired to name himself Regent to the minor (and somewhat foolish) prince. When Rory arrives in her new home, she uncovers a treacherous plot to unseat her newly betrothed and usurp his throne. ![]() Then her father is assassinated, her mother gives birth to a son, and Rory is betrothed to the prince of a distant world. ![]() As the eldest daughter, she always imagined she’d inherit her father’s throne and govern the interplanetary Thorne Consortium. Rory Thorne is a princess with thirteen fairy blessings, the most important of which is to see through flattery and platitudes. First in a duology that reimagines fairy tale tropes within a space opera-The Princess Bride meets Princess Leia. ![]()
