Our voyages into Jewish fantasy and science fiction continues with “The Pomegranate Gate” (a finalist for the 2018 Locus Awards and nominee for a 2018 Hugo Award) by Ariel Kaplan.
From the Jewish Book Council: “In this first book of the Mirror Realm Cycle series, Ariel Kaplan invites readers into a complex, fully realized universe. Combining history and fantasy, the novel follows Jewish characters who are rejected and relentlessly pursued by the world of Christian Spain. A young Jewish woman named Toba enters the realm of the Maziks, magical creatures with powers menacing enough to rival those of the Inquisition. Toba’s place in their realm is further complicated by her unusual past. As each character struggles to evade punishment for being Jewish, they navigate twisting paths and encounter unexpected outcomes.”
