Night Spinner is a two-book young adult fantasy duology by Addie Thorley published in 2020 and 2021. The series follows Enebish, a once-celebrated warrior of Ashkar who has been exiled and disgraced after her celestial power — the ability to control the darkness of the night sky — goes dangerously wrong. The world-building draws on Mongolian mythology, steppe culture, and Central Asian history, giving the series a setting that is distinctive within young adult fantasy.
Night Spinner (2020) begins Enebish’s journey from exile back toward the heart of a political conflict threatening her homeland, while Sky Breaker (2021) concludes the duology. The series is a complete, self-contained story and is recommended to be read in order. Readers who enjoy fantasy set outside the typical European medieval framework will find the Mongolian-inspired world one of the series’ strongest features.
