The Blazing World is a 17th century portal fantasy that reflects on natural philosophy with unexpected feminist and polyamorous leanings. Time to meet Frankenstein‘s convention-defying grandma.

I made noises at the end of 2018 about joining in with Can’t Wait Wednesday (hosted by Wishful Endings) but I never quite got round to it.
