But then a vital new force takes root and flourishes, causing their lives to converge with devastating effect. Teenage girls now have immense physical power--they can cause agonizing pain and even death. And, with this small twist of nature, the world drastically resets.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom award-winning author Naomi Alderman, THE POWER is speculative fiction at its most ambitious and provocative, at once taking us on a thrilling journey to an alternate reality, and exposing our own world in bold and surprising ways.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"OUATB","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48803555803391,"sku":"*R0139995*","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0487\/5550\/7364\/files\/18959113482300.jpg?v=1783462113","url":"https:\/\/shop.onceuponatimebooks.com\/products\/the-power-3","provider":"Once Upon a Time Books AR","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
