I Am Princess X by Cherie Priest
Best friends, big fans, a mysterious webcomic, and a long-lost girl collide in this riveting novel, illustrated throughout with comics, and now out in paperback.Once upon a time, two best friends created a princess together. Libby drew the pictures, May wrote the tales, and their heroine, Princess X, slayed all the dragons and scaled all the mountains their imaginations could conjure.Once upon a few years later, Libby was in the car with her mom, driving across the Ballard Bridge on a rainy night. When the car went over the side, Libby passed away, and Princess X died with her.Once upon a now: May is sixteen and lonely, wandering the streets of Seattle, when she sees a sticker slapped in a corner window.Princess X?When May looks around, she sees the Princess everywhere: Stickers. Patches. Graffiti. There's an entire underground culture, focused around a webcomic at IAmPrincessX.com. The more May explores the webcomic, the more she sees disturbing similarities between Libby's story and Princess X online. And that means that only one person could have started this phenomenon -- her best friend, Libby, who lives.In Four and Twenty Blackbirds, Cherie Priest had a strong start. She's also the author of Nor Flesh Nor Feathers, the sequel to Wings to the Kingdom, Fathom, Dreadnought, and Boneshaker, a near-contemporary fantasy that was nominated for a Nebula and Hugo Award, won the Locus Award for best science-fiction novel, and was chosen Steampunk Novel of the Year by steampunk.com. Priest, who was born in Tampa, Florida, received her master's degree in rhetoric from the University of Tennessee. She and her husband, Aric, live in Seattle, Washington, with their huge black cat, Spain.
