Two transgender elders must learn to weave from Death in order to defeat an evil ruler -- in the first novella set in R. B. Lemberg's award-winning queer fantasy Birdverse universe "I am staggered by the richness and intricacy of R. B. Lemberg's imagination. The Four Profound Weaves is an intense and emotional story of a journey of change, growth, and courage." -- Kate Elliott, New York Times bestselling author of the Court of Fives trilogy Wind: To match one's body with one's heartSand: To take the bearer where they wishSong: In praise of the goddess BirdBone: To move unheard in the night The Surun' nomads do not speak of the master weaver, Benesret, who creates the cloth of bone for assassins in the Great Burri Desert.
